The body of Miss Cora Strong [should be Mrs. Cora Strong nee McColley] 35, was recovered from Lake Michigan today. Police said the woman apparently committed suicide over financial troubles and poor health. A packet of letters addressed to Miss Strong mostly from Shelbyville, Ind., was found on the beach and started the search which located her body.

... about 40 years old, resident of
Chicago was taken into charge because she was found wandering around probably all
night when she called on a Boggstown home. She had become irrational and
appeared to have lost all reason probably from exposure. She was taken to
her mother's home. They thought she had started for her home in Chicago.Oct. 17, 1929

LETTER FROM "BUNTE."

Impression of St Paul [MN] and Her Buildings
--Personal
----o----
St. Paul is a great city, and is most compactly built. I visited the Globe;... [The writer goes on to describe several large buildings.]
I found an old Shelbyville boy here, Mr. Frank Strong, who is a clerk in one of the offices of the Duluth and St. Paul Railway. He is doing well, is perfectly delighted with his position and nothing could induce him to return. He got leave of absence for a few hours this morning, and we strolled out Summit Avenue, where all the aristocracy reside, and which Avenue contains all the fine residences. One in particular, is that of J. J. Hill, who is President of the Great Northern Railway. It is built from red granite, is three stories high and contains thirty-three rooms. He has a private electric light plant and artificial gas and the residence will cover three times as much space as that beautiful residence of Mr. and Mrs. Will Major at home. It has been two years since he commenced building it, and it will cost in the neighborhood of one million and a half dollars, when finished.
