MAN OF MYSTERY TAKES
HIS STORY TO GRAVE.
Gerome. Strange Cast-Off from Ships
Found in 1868 with Legs
Amputated.

Associated Press Special
! Digby, n. s., April 27-Death
has finally claimed Gerome, leg
less and silent foreigner of mystery
who was found marooned on the
beach at Mink Cove in 1868. During
nearly half century the man had
steadfastly refused to divulge the
secret of his life or identity, his
nationality or his reason of his
abandonment by the strange vessel.
Declining to talk, work or read, or
even look at pictures Gerome spent
his last days a ward of the govern
ment.
On an afternoon in August. 1868,
two fishermen saw an unidentified
schooner come into the harbor. A
boat was lowered over the vessels
side. The fishermen thought moth
ing of the incident. The next day 4
man was found in a dory. A bottle
of water and package of biscuit
were within his reach The mans
legs had been very recently severed
and the wounds were still fresh, the
work having been done apparently
by skillful surgeon.
When spoken to he moaned, Gee
rome. Nothing more could be ex-
tracted from him and his silence
was never broken.
