MISSIXG, 



From Kenner. La., Fred S. Currier, who was in 

 the employ of B. T. Flanagan at that place, in 

 miles from New Orleans. He left indications ot 

 mental derangement, and it is believed that he has 

 either perished, or is wandering among strangers. 

 He was one of Mr. Heddon's last year's students— 

 a bright young man, of then sound mind; about .'J 

 feet H inches in height, rather slender built, weight 

 about 140, smooth face. nerv(jus sanguine temper- 

 ament, eyes bluish gray, hair dark brown. A little 

 peculiarity in his walk was a hitch in the steps, as 

 if there was a stiffness across the small of the back, 

 though lie was strony and well, with no such weak 

 ness. He was well versed, and very enthusiastic 

 regarding bee-culture. Will any person who may 

 think they have ^ny clue to the whereabouts of 

 the above described person, please report the same 

 to James Heddon, or E. T. Flanagan, Kenner, La ?
