Man Missing 1 8 Years
Appears at Old Home;
Finds Wife Remarried
Joliet, III., Aug. 16. A. W. Swan
son, 3t, "long dead" husband, walked
into a law officer here today and
asked how lie could regain his estate
which was settled in the Will county
court two years ago by his wife, who
is now married again. The former
Mrs. Swanson married Harry Bee
man, a. California business man, in
1918, after she had neither seen nor
heard from her first husband for
18 years, i
According to Mrs. Swanson's
story, she married Mr, Swanson
when she was 17 years old. . They
lived happily for two years when
her husband suddenly disappeared,
supposedly to find work in Virginia.
Left alone with an infant son, Mrs.
Swanson was forced to return to the
home of her parents where she lived
until she had the estate settled. When
the estate was settled she married
her present husband and moved to
California.
Mr. Swanson made no indication
that he would try to uphold his past,
lie admitted he had given his family
no notice of his whereabouts.

M. Brumfield, Oregon dentist
Wanted in Roseburg, Ore., in con
nection with the death of Dennis
Russell, was placed aboard a day
coach at Calgary, Alta., late last
night and started on his journey
homeward, says a Calgary dispatch
to the Portland Telegram.
lie was shackled hand and foot
and chained to a deputy sheriff.
Canadian Pacific railway officials re
fused to permit Sheriff M. S. Star
mer of Roseburg even to approach
the Spokane sleeper with his pris
oner, claiming other passengers
would cancel their reservations if
Brumfield were allowed aboard.
Before leaving the Calgary jail,
Brumfield who had taken no nour
ishment since last Friday, drank a
quantity of milk and appeared much
refreshed. To newspaper men
Brumfield nodded and smiled but
said nothing. To Stunner and Webb
he still insisted his name is Dennis
Russell, but he was otherwise ap
parently rational.

tablished a special bureau to study
and experiment with tractor plows.
