According to liigby, the lat- -, ter received a letter from their daughter, Mrs. S. E. Peak of Greeu River, stating that McKinley had left his! home the night of March 1st a eold, stormy night without coat or hat,, and hasnt been seen since, though a search has been made for him by mem-- 1 hers of the family. This same letter' is understood to have said that there was some talk of some association with a couple of girls, but a later one from the same party said there was nothing to this last story. Rhode was married a couple of years ago to Miss llulda Forsman of Green River, the ceremony having been per-- , formed at Farmington. They later lived in Salt Lake City, where a babe, now 15 months old, was born. Later they resided at Sunnyside and other: Carbon eonnty ramps, and finally bleated in Green River, where a second child was born four days previous to Rhodes disappearance. Sheriff Sit- -' terud dispatched a telegram to Deputy Sheriff Bennett and the latter, in re- ply, acknowledged receipt of same and added that Rhodes had disapieared on j March 4th following some kind of a scrape and had not sinre been heard from. Absence of tehqihone facilities between Green River and the rest of the county is a serious handicap to efficient communication at all times. ru-mo- rs Correspondence Tfaa 8ua.
