Roy McComas
has not returned to this city, but many people think that ere many moons have
elapsed the young man will appear in our midst as healthy and sound as
ever. And it is also thought that his return will bring to light some
facts that will give the gossips a chance to wag their ears in glee.
But, by the way, we
wonder why the services of the distinguished "professor" have not been
invoked while the serach was being made for McComas. Surely the man who
said on September 5th that Katy Smith was in St. Louis and
would return to Shelbyville in less than two weeks should have been consulted.
It seems to us that the
friends who have been looking for the missing one have made a grievous error in
not allowing the wonderful wizard to tell them where the absent one could be
found.
[There were several articles previous to this one. Mr. McComas
mysteriously disappeared on his wedding day.]
