BOY MISSING.
Richard MoseIey, 15, Disappears from
 Home of Guardian.

Richard. G., the 15 year old adopted son of Samuel Moseley has disapear- ed. The boy and his guardian 1Eve been boarding at the home of Albert Perkins at Perkins Corners. The lad had come controversy with his guard ian last week, and 1t is believed that he did not like the reprimand, and Fri day evening left the house. When he left he took a small bundle of his be- longings wrapped up in a newspaper. The Perkins family did not think any thing of his leaving the house. When he did not return, the guardian and family became anxious. It is said that the boy was seen in this city. on Sunday. He had been attending the Model school on Windham street in this city, and he with a number of his schoolmates, it is said had planned to fiiA2e out for the west The hoy told the tory here, it is stated, that he had an uncle living out west MT. Moselcy is authority for the statement that there is no such relative. Tire lad is not over-fond of attending school, and it is believed that he has the lure of the west in his blood and has started for that section of the country The police have been notified, but to date have been unable to find any trace Of the missing lad. It is understood that he had s9 in money with him wlien he disappeared and that he was dress ed in a light suit of clothes, black ov- ercoat, a pair of arctics, and wore l light colored hat without a band.
 MT. Moseley made a search of the schools Tuesday, but was unable to find any clue to his missing ward. The young fellow who was supposed to leave for the west with young Moseley evidently got cold feet and remained at home.
