PERSONALITY LOST,
HE WANDERS ON1
PORTLAND, Or.. April 13.
(A) NameleMK, and lacking any
memory of IiIk pattL life, a man
who came to the police jjtation
Here nearly thn e weeks ao as an
amnesia vletfiu asking h.-lp to
identify himself, has Htarted out in
the world again to make his own
way. '
After being under observation
at the police emergency hospital
for more than n week, ami making
futile efforts to regain recollection
of his past, the man tried for sev
eral days to find work in 1'orlland,
returning each night lo the police
station for lodging. Klnally de
spairing of either recovering bis
personality or getting a job, he set
out yesterday fon the "open road"
bound north, probably to Seattle,
'his identity still hhroud'd in mystery.
