GRUESOME FIND.
Missing Pastor Hanging In Belfry. GERMAN MYSTERY SOLVED. (Australian and N. 55. Press Association.) (Received 10 a.m.) BERLIN, September 19. A fortnight ago Pastor Schwartz, of the church at Wolfenbuttel, disappeared. The country was scoured in vain and eventually the search for the man was abandoned. Every day for a fortnight the old bellringer rang the bell for the call to prayers but failed to notice anything unusual until this morning, when the pastor's hat dropped at his feet. He looked up and saw the pastor's body hanging against the clapper and swinging with the bell.
