TWO MEN WITH SAME
NAME ARE MISSING
Attorney Seeks F. NagIor and
Wife F. c. NayIor

Through the efforts of Attorney
Alexander r. Baum to locate F. Nay
lor. who formerly operated launches
on the bay, il has developed that there
are probably two men by this name
who are missing from this city, but so
far Baum has been unable to get into
touch with either.
The Naylor sought by Baum was sued
in the United States district court by
the Franklin machine company because
of differences over a gas engine which
had been installed by the company in
one OF MAYORS launches. Baum was
retained to defend Naylor, and put up a
bond Of 1865 for his client.
This was about year ago. Baum
was out of the city for several months.
When he rtturned he discovered that
Naylor had sold his launches and dis
appeared. In an effort to find Naylor,
Baum advertised in a newspaper with
the result that Mrs Kitty McInerney
Naylor who is in the relief home in
this city, replied with the Information
that she was the wife of Fred Cooper
Naylor. a boiler maker, whom she had
married in 1892, and was anxious to
locate him herself.
Baum is of the opinion that he is
not the same Naylor he is seeking, but
viii continue his investigation.
