A Mysterious
Disappearance
By MARJORIE CLOUGH
The
Incendiary
By EVERETT P. CLARKE
There wua anxiety In the Alary
wcathor family, Susan, tlio eldest
daughter, aged eighteen, was mlssliitf.
She had gono out during an afternoon,
telling her mother that she would go
to tho library nud do somo shopping.
Sho had not returned to supper, and
her mother was very much worried
about her. Mrs. Marywoathor tele
phoned to various friends of Susie's,
asking If sho was with them, and re
ceived negative replies.
Tho next day an Investigation was
inado as to where tho girl had been
during the previous afternoon. She
had been to tho library, whero Bho had
taken out a book, the uarao of which
tho librarian did not remember. Sho
had not been at any store. Tho pollco
wcro notified of tho dlsappcaranco; In
quiries were made at pollco stations In
neighboring towns, but without elicit
ing nny Information.
Melllngton. whero the Maryweathers
lived, was on tho bank of a river. On
the third day after Susie's disappear
ance, nt a point on the river four miles
abovo tho town, whero a boat watf
kept for ferriage, n book was found on
tho shoro bearing tho stamp of the Mel
llngton library. It was returned to
tho library by a boy, who told how ho
had happened to find It and where.
Tho librarian reported tho matter to
Mr. Maryweather, giving It as his opin
ion that It was the book his daughter
had taken out of the llbrnry.
Deyond tracing Suslo to this point on
tho river the find nvallcd nothing, for
thoro was no other clow by which sho
could bo traced further.
Meanwhile every person who heard
of tho disappearance formed a theory
concerning it. Tho greatest number
bollovcd that Suslo had been kidnaped,
but when a week had passed and no
application for ransom had been re
eelved many doubted this explanation.
Thoso who adhered to It were of oplu
Ion that tho kidnapers had found It nec
essary to their safety to kill their vic
tim. Another theory was that Suslo
had drowned herself under an attack
of temporary insanity. No such men
tal ailing had appeared In tho Mary
weather family, and Susie had always
been considered healthy In every re
spoct. The only symptom that had
been noticed was an apparent prcoccu
patlon.
Ten days passed and no clow to tho
disappearance, other than tho book,
was found. Then a man fishing In n
boat near tho middle of tho river ten
miles below Melllngton caught his hook
In something that he pulled to the
surface and found It to be a plaid
dress. The body of a woman was
taken out of tho water that had evi
dently been there a long while. It was
very much swollen, and tho features
wcro unrecognizable Tho hair tho
only fcaturo unchanged was of the
most ordinary color.
A portion of tbp dress was scut to
Mrs. Mnryweathor, who at onco Iden
tified It ns one belonging to her daugh
ter or had belonged to her. Tho moth
er was positive that Suslo had not worn
It the day sho loft homo nor for u long
while previous. Sho overhauled her
daughter's old clothes, but did not find
(ho dress Indicated.
Tho pollco formed a theory that Su
can Maryweather had gono nway for
somo reason not known to her parents;
had provlous to nor departuro sent or
taken certain clothing, by wearing
which her Identity could tho hotter
bo concealed. While wearing tho plaid
dress she had committed Bulcldo by
drowning. This was a rcasonablo the
ory and disposed of tho case, so that
tho pollco would not need to trouble
themselves further about It
Mr. Muryweatlier believed that tho
body found was that of his daughter;
but, not wishing to destroy all hopo In
his wife, he did not press his opinion
upon her. She took tho ground that
tho theory of tho iwllce wos absurd,
but she was unable to account for tho
dress of tho eaino pattern as ono her
daughter had owned being on tho body
found in tho river. Tho only hopo sho
had was that somo other woman had
worn n dress made of material of a
similar pattern.
No claimant for tho body appearing.
air. Marywcatner disposed of It with
out revealing what ho had douo with
It It was not treated as tho body of
his daughter that Is, no funeral was
hold slnco thero was no certainty ns
to Its Identity.
Tho day after It had been put away
a carriage drove up boforo tho Mary
weather homo, and who Bhould step
out but Susie! She ran Into tho house,
flung herself Into tho arms of her par
ents nnd announced that sho had been
marrlod. Her husband was without
nwnltlng tho result of her confession,
Neither ho nor sho know that sho was
supposed to bo dead.
Suslo's affair had been kept u secret
becnuso her lover's parents opposed his
marrlogo. Tho day of her disappear
anco ho had met her nnd persuaded
hor to go nway with him and bo min
ded. They had crossed tho ferry, and
Suslo had accidentally dropped the
book thero. As soon ns their marriage
had been confessed to tho groom'i
parents and they had boen forgiven
they returned to Suslo's home.
It turned out that Susie had long
before given amy. tho plrtd dress, nnd
It had found Us way to n town some
miles up tho river ami fallen Into the
.hands of n girl who had committed sul
t-ldo. Tho body had llonted down with
tho current past Melllngton before bo
Ing recovered,
I was In a criminal courtroom ono
day among tho spectators when 1 saw
a man sentenced for Incendiarism for
flvo years. Ills wlfo was in court, nnd
tho sceno between them nftcr tho sen-
tenco had been passed was heartrend
ing. I saw tho man's fnco but a fow
moments, nnd It was distorted by ago
ny, but It was Impressed upon my
mind.
Tho crlmo had been committed In tho
town of niltou, which was tho county
sent I lived In Hilton, but had no.
acquaintance with tho convict Sov
oral fires had occurred at s,hort Inter
vals. Ono night n citizen saw n man
setting flro to tho building, lly tho
light of tho nowly kindled flamo tho
citizen got n glimpse of tho Incondl
nry's face, but boforo he could reach
him ho had disappeared In tho dark
ness. A few daya later ho met tho
man Mansfield I had seen sentenced
In tho street nnd recognized him for
tho firebug. Tho result was conviction.
Within n few months after Mansfield
had been taken to tho penitentiary n
scries of fires occurred In Allanvlllo,
somo twenty miles from Hilton. I had
mcnnwhllo removed to Allanvlllo and
was interested in tbcso fires, naturally
connecting them with thoso thnt had
occurred In Hilton, nad 1 not seen
tho perpetrator of tho Incendiarism In
Hilton sent to prison for flvo years I
would havo connected him with tho
fires in Allanvlllo. Indeed, 1 mndo In
quiries ns to where Mansfield wa3 nnd
wns told that ho was serving out his
time.
A number of citizens of Allanvlllo
volunteered to watch at night, and I
was ono of them. There wero twelve
of us, nnd we divided our number Into
threo watches of four each. Ono night
or. rather, morning, for It wns 2
o'clock, I saw a man walking some
distance nhead of me. I followed him,
but before I caught up with him I met
one of the watchers. On asking him
about the party ahead of me, whom
he must havo passed, ho said that ho
know him well, ills nnmo was Simp
son. Ho was troubled with Insomnia,
a:id. not being ablo fo sleep, ho would
go out und walk tho streets.
I was perfectly satisfied with this
explanation and went back to my bent
Notwithstanding our vigilance tho
tires continued, nnd wo failed to bo on
tho ground when they were lighted.
They wcro not very frequent, nnd some
of tho watchers began to think that
occurring ns they did was merely a
coincidence. Ono after another gavo
up watching till thero wero but half a
dozen of us loft
I met Simpson on several occasions,
but never in sufficient light to see his
face. One night when walking with n
fellow watcher Simpson passed us
My companion bado him good evening.
spoko n few words to him, and wo
passed on. Wo wcro near a street
lamp when wo met him, and I got n
glimpse of his partially lighted face.
Something within mo, somo psycho
logical working, seemed to connect
Simpson with tho fires. I said nothing
to my companion of my feeling, but
resolved 'that I would dovoto my fu
turo wotchlngs to Mr. Simpson. Hut I
asked questions as to who and what
he was und was told that he was a
good citizen and tho father of n highly
respected family.
Acting on an impression for which 1
could not nccouut, I spent sovcrnl of
my periods of watching near Mr. Simp
son's house. On tho third night 1 saw
him co out and shadowed blm. Ho
walked nbout aimlessly for awhile,
thon returned to his homo. I wns bo
far satisfied that ho was what he was
considered to be that 1 gave up my
purpose of shadowing him. But I
could not get rid of the impression I
had received.
Ono morning nbout dawn when
was about to go homo from my watch
I saw ono of our party coming with n
policeman who had a man by the arm.
I waited till they came up, and, bo-
hold, tho prisoner was Slmpsonl I was
told that ho had been caught setting
flro to n building.
Tho town of Allanvlllo wob greatly
Hhockcd to learn that Its respected
fellow citizen wos n firebug, no was
tried for his crime nud adjudged In
sane on tho testimony of alienists,
who considered his Insomnia tho causo
of his Insanity. Ho wns acquitted on
the promise of his family to sond him
fo n prlvnto sanltnrlum.
When I first saw Simpson In tho
light I recognized or thought I recog
nized Mansfield, who had been con
victed of tho uamo crlmo nt Hilton.
Then I began to suspect that Simpson
was a different person and was tho
real criminal In both cases. I asked
If he had evur lived at Hilton and
was to)d that ho had been staying
tlion temporarily at tho time the fires
had occurred thero. This settled tho
mi'ttor In my mind.
1 went at once. to Hilton, called on
Mrs. Mansfield nnd told her that
thought I had proof of her husband's
Innocence. Tho happiest moment of
my life was when, on tolling hor my
Mtory. 1 saw her faco light up with n
mingled relief nud J07.
Mansfield, on his Innocence being es
tnlillxhod. was pardoned by tho gover
r..T of the state, which was a qulckor
tvn.f V jset lmi free than n now trial.
If tho sceno of Mansfield being torn
fi:u his family was heartrending, my
happiness nt having reunited him with
li( family was ecstatic. Wo nro nil
