A MYSTERIOUS DISAPPEARANCE.
[Per Press Association.]
QREYMOUTH, March 18. William Kettle, a baker, in a very good position, a sober, steady living man in all relations of life, left his bed about twelve on Tuesday night, to set his batch of bread, and that is the last seen of him since. His assistant came about 1.80, but found him nowhere. Mrs Kettle telling him that Kettle went to the bakehouse about twelve, a search has been made persistently ever since, but no trace has been found. Kettle had been in rather weak health and low spirits for some time back, but bis wife bad no reason to suspect anything wrong with his mental state. His exit from every-day life is considered mysterious, but no explanation can be given at present. Kettle has been a teetotaller for many years, and was well enough off to retire from business.
