Detective Andrew ]. Boersig. who
has been working on the mysterious

Patmont, returned TO Detroit, Tues
day, from Danyilie and Westville,
where his search took him, and held
a conference with Police Commission.
or Gillespie, Wednesday morning. BE.
fore entering the conference. Boersig
declared that he had nothing to make
public at this time, and would ask
that the results OF his inquiries be

This much will say" said Detec.

source that have been working to
prove that the disappearance was a
fake, is absolutely without founda.
ton"
Commissioner Gillespie made a
statement abT-t rsig's activities
in the Patmont x Wednesday,
which shows that sig was merely
trying to learn what really did hap
pen to the vanished minister, and
how.
"BoerSIs is not working under or
ders of the police department. in his
Investigation, said the commissioner
'He is officially on furlough. and is
practically in the employ OF private
parties interested in the Patmont
case. They are paying his salary and
expenses, until the investigation is
completed. If II shows that Detroit
crime was involved in the disappear
ance OF Patmont, then the police de-
partment will refund the amount of
Boersig's salary. II no Detroit crime
is shown, the parties who asked that
Boersig be detailed TO work on the in.
vestigation will have TO stand all sal
airy and expense cost"
Commissioner Gillespie said that he
received request from an attorney,
whose name he is Withholding, asking
that Boersig be placed on the Patmont
case, as he was satisfied that Boer-
sig's mind was open on the matter,
and that he was not prejudiced one
way or the other"
Boersig was sent TO confer with the
attorney, who is evidently retained by
a committee of the Pmm-st Church Of
Christ according to Commissioner
Gillespie Boersig met Alex Y. NAL
oomson, prominent business man, and
leader in the church circles, and
Boersig reported back that Mr. NAL
comson had made all arrangements 10
take care OF his expenses while he
was at work on the investigation.
Boersig was formally placed on fur.
Tough. to accept the free lance" as
signment
IL don't want to know what he is
doing, until he is ready to make a
definite report" said Commissioner
Gillespie. IF his report shows that
q crime was committed in Detroit,
then | shall be interested In what
Boersig is doing, but IL he finds other
wise, do not know or care what he
is doing
There is absolutely nothing I could
give out at present" said Detective
Boersig, when questioned by The
Times
He declined 10 even discuss the
nature OF the work he was doing:
who he was working with, or what
theories he was following.
