Above is a photograph of Airs Elsie Al.ace, who has been missing from her home in Barnard Street. Highland Park, .Wellington, since 3.30 o’clock on Sunday morning, July 24. She was clothed in a pink nightgown, probably a bed jacket, and a dark red flannel dressing-gown, and bed socks with fancy lace-up fronts. It is thought that Airs Alaee may have wandered down to the Hutt Road and have been given a lift by a passing motorist. Airs Alaee was quite normal when she retired, but was recovering from an attack of influenza. A medical man is of the opinion that, when she opened the door of the house, the sudden shock of the cold southerly which was blowing, coming on top of the influenza, caused something to snap in the brain, so that Mrs Alaee will probably be suffering from loss of memory. Airs Alaee is aged 43. about sft 4in in height, of slight build, arms and neck well tanned, hair dark, turning grey. Anyone with any knowledge of the whereabouts of Mrs Alaee is asked to communicate with the nearest police station.
