BODY Of MAN IS
FOUND IN RIVER
WEALTHY RETIRED FARMER DIS
APPEARED TWO YEARS AGO
FOUL PLAY SUSPECTED.

FLINT, Mich. March 20.-Two
Italian residents yesterday found the
body of man, supposed TO be that OF
Thomas Moorish. who disappeared
from his home in Flushing village IN
January, 1907. in the river near the
village OF Montrose. The body was
badly decomposed. but 1t was identi-
fed by boot on the right foot.
Meerish -was-a wealthy retired
farmer On the night OF his diSap'
pearance he had been down TO the
hotel and other places in Flushing
and when last seen he was starting
for home. The night was dark and
stormy and his course took him
close TO the river. which had been
swollen to twice its normal size by
midwinter thaw.
When he failed TO put in an ap-
pearance his wife took it for grant
ed that he had gone TO the home OF
his son for the night. and the fact
that he was missing was not dis
closed until the following day The
river was searched from Flushing 10
Saginaw bay and men were stationed
at different points along the banks
OF the stream for weeks without re-
suit while circulars containing de-
scription OF the missing man and
Offering a reward for information con
corning his whereabouts were sent To
all the principal cities throughout the
country.
Many persons shared In the bellef
that Moorish was a victim OF foul play
as IL was known TO be his practice 10
carry considerable sum OF money
about with him. and the ofncers
worked for months on that theory
after the search OF the river had
bean abandoned
