been during his absence. The banks
affairs are in good shape, but Mr..
Hagman is considerably in debt per-

a month g a vigorous search has
been prosecuted, but no trace of him
could be secured. Wednesday a tele-
gram came from him, filed at Gregory,
Mimi, stating that he had just recov-
cred his reason there and would return
home If he could remain rational long
enough.
In n with this announcement he
returned to Roclkham yesterday, bag

erwise in good health. He states that
he remembers nothing from the time
he left in his automobile for Zell, to
make settlement on a note held against
him there, until he recovered his rea-
son at Gregory.

his automobile was found within 80

He was the youngest general of the
