Where Is The Woman

WHERE IS THE WOMAN

Strange Woman Hired a Horse Tuesday Afternoon

HAS NOT RETURNED

Liveryman Has Become Anxious and Would Like to Hear from Her- Came from Pinckney

On Tuesday, July 21, a woman giving her name as Mrs. Eastman, of Pinckney, called at the Polhemus livery barns and engaged a rig until 6 o'clock that evening, agreeing to return the same at that hour. Since that time nothing has been heard from the woman. She claimed to be engaged in some kind of canvassing and stated that she would probably want to use a rig for ten days or two weeks. The only trace of the rig since it left the barns is a statement by a party that he saw it hitched In front of a drug store in the city on the day it was engaged.

Something of a hunt has been going on for the missing horse and buggy, but no trace has been found. Officers may be on the look out for rig and the person who engaged it, but no information of either has been obtained up to the present.

It is not supposed the woman gave her real name, nor is it known whether her home is at Pinckney. The offense is a serious one and is covered by a special statute. The woman is likely to be confronted with a serious charge when discovered.
