As announced in last week's Lender
Fred Echternacht disappeared from
Genoa on Tuesday last and no trace
of him was found until Friday last
when a phone measure was received
stating that he was in police hoFpi
tal a at Omaha. His absence was not
discovered .nntil Thursday morning
from the fact that being engaged in
the windmill and pump business he
frequently drives out in the country
and is absent for a cay or two. On
Tuesday he informed Mrs Echternacht
that he was going to drive out in the
country to repair a pump, and she
naturally thought he was detained
and not being near a telephone did
not phone her as he was wont to do.
Bat when he did not return Wednes
day night she reported his absence,
and it was discovered that his team
had not been cared for since Tuesday.
After an attempt had been made to
locate him by phone in any of the
surrounding towns, searching parties
were organized but without result
Friday atfernoon a message was re
ceived from his brother-in-law at
Omaha that fie had just been notified
that Fred was at the police station,
having been taken from a Union Paci
fic train Wednesday morning in a de
mented condition. Friday ho was
taken with spasms and it was thought
he was dying, but when he came out
of them he was rational enough to
inform them who he was. Mrs.
Echternacht went to Omaha Satur
day. About a year and a half ago
Fred hadhis skull broken by a 'tackle
block and for the past few weeks he
has been complaining that his head
hurt him severely at the injured spot
and it is thought that is what caused
his imanity.
