A LOUATE ABSENTEES ON SLENDER CLUES Police Often Called Upon to Find Missing Persons One of the most various lines is that of other, leave their places of abod: after short periods of residence and move on without notifying anyene otherwise them | of their destination or making It possible to easily. The polica of trace New Britain fréquently are requested to find cer- | tain men and women, not always | for the purpose of prosecuting them or turning them over to the authori- ties of other places, although that | the search and knowledge of the fact is frequently the principal reason for is, as & rule, the reason for the sudden departure of the miss- ing ones. ‘These hunts are not always inter- esting, despite the glawor and the romance that are often woven about such incidents in fiction, and more often than not, a great deal of hard work is required, whether the search is successful or not. Experi- enced men in this work can he found in every police department and in private detective agencie but there are also any number of them in the employ of insurance companies and other organizatiol about whose activities considerably less is known to the public can be readily learncd about the constituted authorities of any com- | munity. In their work they come in contact with countless individuals of all types, and situatiops confront them that are at once startling and puzzling, yet they are expected to carry on and overcome all sorts of obstacles if they would be success- tul. Got Tip by Surprise Recently, an investigator lacking the authority of an officer of the law, was in New Britain on 4he trail of a man who was a resident of a city in the far west in 1921, but whose whereabouts since that time could not be learned by an or- ganization which was charged with the task of finding him and which had practically promised to conduct the search successfully. The tralt was cold for more than a year and no less than seven investigators had fallen down completely before an old man, dropping in to usc the public telephone in a drug store in a city 0 miles distant from the residence of the missing man, was heard to mention a third party's name within hearing of a woman who was waiting outside the tele- phone booth. The woman had been the sweet- heart of one of the investizators who was on the hunt in its early stages and had often talked over the case with him, consequently she was very familiar with all the de- tails and the name she heard while waiting had a significance to her which it lacked to anyone clse in the store. Following the old man, #he managed to hecome acquainted with him and through a very skill- ful use of her wits, came into pos- gession of information of v connection with the searching or- ganization and she knew nobody else to whom she could communi- cate her findings, Puts Puzzlc Together After considering the situation several days, however, she wrote to the office of the concern and with- in a month the trail was warm. It led to meveral places in the south and finally to Connecticut. The in- vestigator who was in New Britain and from whom the details were learned, thought he was heaten when an especially promising tip proved wo-thless in Waterbury, but he persisted in the hunt and while in this city he had the satisfaction of piecing together the most impor- tant details he had obtained since arriving in New England. Beyona | establishing the fact that he did not | locate the man he sought in New Britain, local residents who knew of the case never lcarned the ulfimate outcome of the search. Rooming houses in various par’s of the city are known to have been the temporfiry abode of men, ana women, too, who seemed to drop out of sight without any reason and not more than a day or two before someone bent on finding them pur in appearance. Policemen often are detailed to locate men who are known in other cities of a certaln street, only to find that | they moved to another address or left town entirely, several months prior to the time they became known in the place from which th- request for the search came. To sorfie of those iIn this category, a| home address means little or nofh- ing.
