A number of people in Rownyton are
wondering if anything will be likely
to happen to theur in the near future.

.:II'II \"t‘II-iU-lIl), I'll‘t- thoroughly respect-
lublII, and have always stood high in
'tlII- estimation of other people III the
I village
The trouble commenced as early as
last fall. when sevrrul of the unscrup-
Irlcus captains on coal barges consign-
I (III to Wilson‘s l'oint conceived the idea
of selling a few tons from each of the.
cargoes believing that the owners and
Ionslgnees would never know anything
of the matter. Various prices were t‘lx-
ed on a ton of coal. but some of the
people in thII vicinity of the Point have
been known to secure a ton of it for
$2 and 33. while people purchasing of
tlrrI local dealers paid 810 and 812, and
[could not always get as much as they
wanted at the bum price even. A
iltunbury dealer Iialms he was sixty-
five tons short on a barge load of four
hundred tons.
A number of Rownyton people made
use of their oyster boats in the trans»
portatlou of the coal. and delivered It
to friends in the village for a small rc-
I muneratlon. It is impossible, of course.
to estimate the quantity of coal that
has been disposed by the captains of
the barges. but it appears that the
owners bcI-snre cognizant of the fact
that some of the consignees Iwere gct~
ting short weight. and started an In-
vestigation.
The past week ii number of notices
were posted In liowuyton offering a
reward of 825 for the arrest and corr-
viction of any person or persons who
was guilty of complicity in taking the
coal. One of these notices was placed
on the public sign post opposite Mead
llrothers‘ store, and another was locat-
ed in Charles H. Guldor‘a store, and In
other points about the business center.
The. notices were poster] drrrlng the
afternoon. but the next morning there
were none to be found. all having mys~
tcrlously disappeared and strangely -
I enough no one new who had removed
I them or where they had gone.

of coal was being taken from Wilson' 3

they finally reached land. The boat

Monday Mr. Morrell went to his
lime and had dinner as usual. He ap-
neareda to be In good spirits. and kissed
his wife and child good-bye after the
meal. “I am going to go to Bridge-
port this afternoon." said he. Leav‘l

Mrs. Morrell was seen this afternoon
by a Sentinel reporter. She was ob.
solutely mystified about the where
abouts of her husband. She said that,
he went away Monday been saying that
he was going to Bridgeport, but that
he had not returned.
“He often went to Bridgeport." she
said, “but he has always returned at
night. I have no Idea what has become
of him. He has never been away be-
fore like this and I cannot understand
it at all. At first I thought that some
accident might have happened to him
which would detain him. but. I would
have heard of it had anything of the
kind occurred. He was not a drinking
man that I know of. He had never ex-
pressed any desire to go away, to me.
at least. I would like to get some
news of him, but I have no idea where
to look."
An Inquiry was mode at the lust
Norwalk office of Cole‘s Electric Ex
press. The manager stated that he
knew nothing about Mr. Morrell, ex-
clept that. he was no longer working
i turn.
”Are his, accounts straight?" risked
the reporter.
“As to that, I could not say. Mr.
Cole would probably know. I guess he
is at his office In New Haven, but I
rather expect that h will be here this
afternoon. We rote ed no intimation
that Mr. Morrell was about to leave.
and did not known until yesterday
noon that he had gone. Then I was
sent here by Mr. Cole and have been
here since. I know nothing about Mr.
Morrell except that be Is not here and
a great many people are enquiring ab-
, out him.‘
An attempt was made to interview
Mr. 00‘s by telephone. but he could
not be found either at the New Haven
or Bridgeport offices of the. company
and none of the employees knew where
he was. It Is probable. however. that
he is on his way‘to this city.
