MARSHFIELD. Or., Feb. 6. (Spe
cial.) County and city officers will be
asked to aid in solving a mystery of
three years' standing the disappear
ance here of John O. Petty, a single
man of about 65 years, who had no rel
atives in America.
Mr. Petty disappeared from here im
mediately after the Smith pulp mill
was dismantles about three years ago
and parts taken to Oregon City and
British Columbia. He worked some
time at the task and accumulated
considerable sum of money. Foul play
therefore is feared. Mr. Petty was en
gaged to go to Oregon City to work.
He was seen the day before he de
clared he would depart, but since that
time no word has been received re
garding his location. Inquiries have
been made at Oregon City and other
places.
Those who ask a search think Mr.
Pety either became insane after leav
ing here or else was murdered and his
body concealed in this vicinity. Friends
say his habits and character were good.
Neighbors and friends .believe if it
were possible to locate Russel Wlnslow,
a civil engineer and promoter, who
lived with Mr. Petty for some time,
Mr. Winslow might be able to shed
some light on the affair.
Mr. Petty related to his friends the
circumstances of his association with
Mr. Winslow, who he said came to his
home and arranged for board. Although
Mr. Winslow remained with him for
several months, he never repaid Mr.
Pety for his keeping, acoording to the
old man s stories. In the meantime Mr.
Winslow sold him property in the
Boise .Addition, Mr., Petty claimed, to
which he could obtain no title, al
though paying out nearly S400 in the
purchase. In his complaints about Mr.
Winslow's persisting to remain at his
home, although unwelcome, Mr. Petty
said he was unable to rid himself of
his guest, and "was afraid of him."
In 1918 Russell Winslow promoteda
mining scheme in Southern Coos Coun
ty, which failed. Soon after Mr. Win
slow was married here and left. His
present location is unknown here.
Friends of Mr. Petty, in defending
themselves for not sooner instituting
an inquiry, say they hoped to trace
him through ordinary channels, an
gave up that hope only recently.
A thorough search of the wooded
city will be submitted to the patrons
of the district this Spring.

TO MOTHERS! Instead of the dreaded dose
