The park police were unable to find any
trace of the man, but set out again today
to look for him. According TO the South
Orange village police the suit case could
not have been In the woods longer than two

and a son OF consolation"
The Rev, s. TreVena jackson, pastor OF
the Arlington M. e. Church. spoke briefly
upon his sfhort acquaintance with the

letter only two weeks prior to his death,
in which he spoke of the many pleasant

what He was when on earth, a Christ mes
