   Of an eighteen year old girl in this city disappeared Labor Day.

  The day her father bought a piano for her - a farmer's daughter who had never been from home.

  Miss Cora E. Dean, a young woman of 18 years, disappeared in this city on Labor Day. She is the daughter of F. P. Dean, a farmer of Northfield, whose post office address is Rushton and who lives four miles southwest of South Lyon. She came to this city with her father and mother Labor Day and when it came time to go home she was not to be found. The parents finally went home without her, but were not much worried about the matter as she had several relatives in the city and was supposed to be with them. Wednesday her mother came to the city and saw all the relatives, but the girl was not with them. An aunt had seen her last at 5 o'clock on Labor Day. She talked with the aunt awhile and a young man came up to whom she spoke and the aunt left them talking together. She did not know who the young man was. This is the last trace that the parents could find of her.

  On Labor Day Mr. Dean bought a piano for his daughter in this city, which was delivered at his house the past week, but although the daughter knew they had been talking of buying it she did not know that it had been purchased.

  The girl had no money with her and no clothing except what she wore. She was in the city with her parents just for the day. She has never been away from home.

  Miss Dean is described as being 5 feet 6 inches in height, weighing about 145 pounds, with light hair and light complexion with considerable color.

  The parents imagine all sorts of disasters which may have befallen her, including foul play. Anyone possessing any information about the girl should communicate with Sheriff Gauntlett, who is trying to find her.
