         Strange Disappearance - A man named WILLIAM BAILEY, aged
       about forty years, and somewhat demented in intellect, left
       the house of GEORGE KEITH, of Charlotte, very mysteriously
       on Tuesday night of last week. It seems that he was tempo-
       rarily ill and went to bed with some fever. During the night
       he arose and stripped himself of everything upon his person,
       and left the house barefooted and in a state of utter nud-
       ity. Since that time no trace of him can be found, although
       most dilligent search has been made for the last two days
       by a large party of men and boys in Charlotte and vicinity.
       He was lately from Hastings, where he has a relative or two.
       
       (Transcriber's Note: The 1870 Census Mortality Schedule for
        Charlotte, Easton Co., MI. shows William Bailey, age 35,
        born in England, Insane - died of exposure.)
