Quite a little excitement and anxiety was caused here last Friday night over the sudden disappearance of Mr. Melvin Beebe. Mr. Beebe's horse was taken sick the forepart the evening and about 10 o'clock he started over street after Mr. H. Livingston, the veterinary surgeon, and turned homeward but missed his way and continued on down through the village and on to the State road. As he did not return home an alarm was made and a search began by his family and several neighbors, who hunted all through the night but no trace of him could be found. Early next morning Mr. Charles Steadman, who lives about a mile and a half east of the village, saw Mr. Beebe at his front gate and spoke to him. He seemed to be in a dazed condition and could not give an accurate account of his travels farther than to say that be had lost his bearings and could not find his way home. Mr. Beebe was in a pitiable condition, having been into the water and mud up to his waist. Mr. Steadman very kindly assisted him home where be was immediately given clean clothes and warm drinks which soon revived him. He is now none the worse for his night's wanderings.
