NOTHING WAS MYSTERIOUS 

ABOUT THE DISAPPEARANCE OF STUDENT MERRILL

Who Left Last Tuesday on a Hunting Exhibition, Taking a Shaving Outfit

Oliver J. Merrill, '05 law, who rooms at 1027 Catherine street, left the city Tuesday afternoon and in consequence a number of sensational stories were sent out about his mysterious disappearance. Suicide was hinted at and other dark forebodings. All these statements have slim foundations. Merrill is off on a hunting trip. The Argus has been handed a reply to one of the articles spoken of which appeared in Sunday's U. of M. Daily, where some significance was attached to the fact that he took his razor with him. As he took the rest of his shaving outfit this significance disappears. It is said that the story of his mysterious disappearance originated at his boarding house and his friends are much stirred up about it. They say that he was of a cheerful disposition and there was nothing about his leaving which called for comment.
