GEO. LUNT MISSING
FROM HOME
Letter States He Will
Not Return
According to the Story Told by Mrs.
Lunt Who Supposed Her Husband
Was Going to Harmony on Business

George Lunt. an electrician and
proprietor of an electrical shop on
Madison avenue. has disappeared from
his home and Saturday last his wife
received a communication from him
mailed in Montreal. which stated that
he should not return again to SkoW-
hegan and that he knew he was leay-
ing her in a hard place, according
to Mrs Lunt. She was formerly Miss
Myrtle Howes and in an interview
with the Reporter Tuesday afternoon
stated that she supposed her husband
had gone to Harmony to sell light
ming rods at the time of his departure.
This was Monday, July 10. He asked
her to have some shirts ready for him
but took few personal belongings. She
accompanied him over street and no
ticed nothing out of the ordinary in
his appearance She believed he was
going to take the afternoon train for
Harmony but since has learned that
he took the car to Madison and thence
on to Canada She stated that his
business had been good and that she
had clothed the children by taking in
washings and working outside her
home. The couple have been mar
ries about fifteen years and they have
three children, Genevieve. 13; Viona
u and Persis years. The family
live in one of the Weston houses on
Skowhegan Island, near the power
house. 1t is understood that Mr..
Lunt was heavily in debt. This may
have been the reason for his hasty
deDarture. His former home was in
Norridgewock where his father is
manager of a creamery. Mr.. Lunt
was a pleasant and agreeable fellow
and was for sometime located in Jack
man.
