A Mystery Solved.

The mystery which has shrouded
the disappearance of L. W. Fansher, a
former nursery man Of this city, who
disappeared in 1909, leaving a wife
and four children here, has been
solved. Mr.. Fansher lies near death
in a hospital at Santa Rosa, Cal. He
remembers nothing Of the past four
years only recently recovering his
mind. Mrs. Fansher has left for his
bedside.
The disappearance Of Mr.. Fansher
attracted attention over the entire
coast. His uncle II. B. Goodpasture
spent much time and money trying
to locate him, but failed. Finally he
was believed dead.
The last seen of Fansher he was
walking south along the Southern Pa
ciflc tracks. Some of his papers
we're later found
Mrs. Fansher was informed Thurs
day of the whereabouts of her hus-
band. He has just recovered his
mind. This bears out the theory ad-
vanced by his friends at the time OF
his disappearance that he had lost his
mind as he had no financial or do.
