discovery of Miss Martins where
abouts has been chased down and nu-
merous friends of the Tribune have
assisted in this work. AT noon yes
terday, however, the search appeared
as hopeless as ever. In spite Of the
fact that several letters were received
by Mrs. Martin and the Tribune CIV
ing new leads"
Mrs. W. j. Brown, nee Miss Rosa
lind Taylor Martin, daughter of Mrs.
Virginia L. Martin, Of Lakeland.
wrote the Tribune confirming the
story published yesterday morning
that she, and not the missing Lillian
Martin, was the young woman mar
ried Saturday July. II, in Tampa. Tho
fact that the description of the two
young women tailed in some details,
and that a request had been made at
NV SouAts Juu5t ufilC6 that CuS
newspapers should not be advised OF
the Issuing of the marriage license,
had strengthened the theory that the
missing girl might have married and
left the city, Mrs. Brown wrote her
letter, as she stated, in the hope that
the efforts to find the lost girl would
not be slackened.
A letter received by Mrs. Martin
from James Doolex of Wauchula stat
ed that on the Saturday in question he
saw young woman in the Bridges
hctel,at Lakeland. who answered the
description of Miss Martin. This girl,
ne stated was obviously unfamiliar
with the town, and he requested that
a photo to assist in tracing her be
sent. It is now presumed that Miss
Martin caught morning train out of
Tampa, probably stopped in Lakeland
to look for work, and failing in that
proceeded to Jacksonville later in the
day.

when the letter was written. The let

still in Jacksonville. The Savannah
woman at once called at the Tribune

A telegram which was dispatched
Immediately brought the information
that Lillian Martin was at the Y. W.
G. A. July II to 49,. At present, it
stated, she was working with pri-

evact address is not known. She Wis

trouble will be found in securing her
exact address. Miss Ida M. Ragsdale
of the Jacksonville Y. W. C. A. was
requested to secure this information
to relieve Miss Martins mother, who
has been almost frantic for the past
week.
Mrs. Martia, upon being informed
that her daughter had been located,
was overjoyed, and asked that her
thanks be extended to the friends who
have assisted in the search for her
daughter. Naturally she was anxious
to secure her daughters exact ad-

possible, with the assurance that this
will almost certainly be secured to
