MYSTERY CLEARED
Fahlberg Who Ran Away From
Union County Located
in Illinois

BeresfcId Dec. IA. The mystery in
the disappearance of David Fahlberg on
the night of January 2 last, from his
farm some miles west of Beresford,
was solved today by the publication
in the Beresford Republic of a letter
from him. dated from a town in Illinois.
Fahlberg makes a complete confes-
sion. giving as his reason for his
leaving the fact that he wished to
lead a .'free life," aud his financial
affairs were worrying him. The letter
tells of his experiences. He had about
$50 when he left, but this was soon
gone. Taking the train at Davis, he
worked northward, and found himself
in Minneapolis, without money. He
pawned his watch for enough to get
transportation to the woods of north
ern Wisconsin, where be worked un-
til the last of February, when he
went TO a farm in Mitchell county,
la. Later he worked for a time in
North Dakota, then drifted to Illinois,
from which state the letter is addressed
at this time. Following Fahlberg's
disappear ance last January. a portion
of the people suspected he had left the
country, but most of them hung to the
murder theory. and the country for
miles around was searched. Every
clew was run down, and everything
done to solve the mystery. 1t remained
a mystery, however, until the receipt
of the letter by Fahlberg's BROTHER.
The relatives will endeavor to induce

the Pere Marquette track about four
hundred feet west of the depot by
the west bound passenger that leaves

for the irmen to see the little girl
but threw her in the direct line of
vision of the engineer providing he
was watching the track. 1t is appar
cnt that he was not for the train did
not stop even after the child was
struck. Eye witnesses of the acci-
dent claim that the whistle was not
blown for the nearby crossing. One

seeing the impending danger. How
ever she soon saw that she could not
reach the place in time so began
