north of Salisbury. YVorld War vet
eran who mysteriously disappeared
Monday, February Ist. turned up nt'
his 'home last Monday, was unable to!
give anything like a connected account!
of his whereabouts during the week!
he was missing. The former servile *
man was gassed while in action in 1
the YVorld YY'ar and has never com
pletely recovered from the effects and j
at times his mind becomes a total!
blank, it is said.
It was on Monday, February Ist. |
that he was last located and that!
was while /coming out of the court!
house with Deputy Sheriff Yarborough |
of Yadkin, a personal friend. He!
was supposed to be on his way home,
but nothing more was heard of -his j
whereabouts until he showed up this j
week.
Mr. Smith, who is a barber by:
trade, is said to have explained that!
two men in an automobile picked him!
up to take him to Yadkin, that hej
drank what he thought was a bottle!
of coca-cola, and the next he knew
was when he found himself in the
woods, he knew not where. He said
he started walking and reached Lex
ington. later returning home. He is
reported as saying that he got his
usual monthly government Aeek cash
ed, but is said not to have had any
money on hia return home. Where
he ate or slept during the time he
was gone is not known. As his mind
is a blank at times and things are
remembered in a rather hazy and dis
connected way during these spells it
is not known whether his story as to
his experiences during his absence are
correct.
American Legion officials interested
themselves in bis behalf as soon as his
disappearance became known and
shortly after his return home he was
taken to Charlotte to be placed in a
hospital. It is said be may iiossibly
be transferred to a government hos
pital.
He has a wife living at Y’akdin
and has a host of friends there and 1
elsewhere who are distressed over bis
conditions and are doing what they !
can to see that he gets proper treat
ment in an effort to remedy the after
affects of the gassing he received in
the YY’orld War.

many eases were isolated from with

wallow through deep rifts tot reach
railway stations, were delayed. Taxi
cabs, which had reaped a harvest
since last Thursday’s storm, re
fused to leave the main highways
at any price. Many private care
which attempted to force their way
through side streets and byroads;
were stalled and abandoned.
* Buried in Snow.
Near Bedford, Mass., the coupe of
Dr. Thomas YVoife was completely
buried. A snow plow crew discovered
the ear when their plow rammed into
it. Dr. Wolfe was found safe inside,
having kept to the shelter of the
automobile after it stalled, rather
than expose himself to the elements.
Thousands of snow shovelens who
had cleared the main thoroughfares
in New York city of the previous
' snow and had attacked the feeder
| streets and roads, were recalled to-'
| day.
I In the large cities a milk famine
was threatened, due tothe delay of
numerous milk trains.
Rum row was left to its own de
vices as the const guard patrol boats
scurried to shelter. However. the
rough sea was considered a sufficient
’'harrier- to any unauthorized landing
: of liquor boats.
