unreasonable.
In no section of the country will

Editor Mt. Sterling Advocate, Mt.

Dear Sir Much has been writ
ten and published to the disadvan-

the disappearance of Mr.. W. +
Smith some weeks ago. The
Grand Jury of Fayette county has
had the matter under investigation
and upon adjournment made the
enclosed report. Assuming that
the newspapers of the Commo. =
wealth are interested in knowing
the truth, and that they will be
glad to place the State University
in proper light before the com
munity, | send you the report re-
ferred to, with the request that
you give it equal publicity with
the compromising rumors which
have obtained currency.
Mr.. Smith has not yet been dis
covered. The belief grows stron-
ger daily that he went away vol
unfairly. Yours very truly,
JAMES X. PATTERSON,

the court that 50 far as we could
we have investigated those matters

opinion, justified it.
We have spent IL great deal of
time in the investigation of the
disappearance Of Willis +. Smith.
Il student Of State University. In
the course Of our investigation We
have also tried to run down all
newspaper stories and rumors. but
in no case have we found any les
tlmOny to substantiatc such news
paper statements or reports.
In all casts we have traced sucI
stories and reports back to some
person who had merely expressed
his opinion of the possible solution
of the mystery.
We have been able to find nc
witness who ever saw Smith on
the night of his disappearance,
after he left his boarding house.
We recommend that the invest
