When Mrs. Btgne was last seen, she was headed toward the ocean' and tracks were discovered, which are supposed to have been hers along the beach, and her cape was also found along the beach, thus making it practically certain that the woman threw herself jnto the sea. Mrs. Bigne had acted rather queer- ly for some time, and as she was staying at the Forshay home, they were watching her closely, but on Friday morning while the family were at. breakfast she some how slipped out, leaving a note in her room bidding her friends good bye, and although she could not have been gone more than ten or fifteen minutes before the fact was discovered, they were unable to find her, although search was com menced at once, and to date nothing has been heard of her since. Mrs. Bigne was born in Iowa and was 56 years old at the time of her disappearance. She has been here about 18 years and was well known and highly respected by all who knew her. She had grieved over the loss of her husband who died in 1905 and it is thought that she had become partially demented. The only living relatives known are her sister Mrs. Lettie Jenkins and family, Mrs. Forshay oeing a a daughter cf Mrs. Jenkins, and there are two sons in California.
