Reynolds Says He Was Drugged and Robbed Officers searched last week for a mysterious young man whom they believe drugged and robbed H. M. Reynolds, an elderly resident of Keokuk, and drove his car to Missouri where it stalled in the road north of here with a blown out gasket.

Reynolds was unconscious when he reached Palmyra and the man accompanying him eluded officers by telling garage men that he was going to the hotel to make reservation for Reynolds. Late Thursday night E. D. Lovegreen, proprietor of the Ford motor sales and service here, received a call to come to a point near the A. C.

Chamberlain home, north of Palmyra, to pull in a stranded car. The car, an Oakland coupe, was pulled in and after arriving here gargemen discovered that Reynolds, one of the occppants, was unconscious. The younger man told the men at the garage that he would go to the hotel and make reservation for Reynolds but as he did not return in due time officers were notified. Inquiry at the hotel disclosed that no reservation was made and that the man in question had never been there. Officers immediately started a search, they were somewhat at a loss to know just what happened because Reynolds could not be roused to tell them.

Early Friday morning Reynolds who is known by several people in Palmyra, rallied from his stage of unconsciousness and told officers that he met the young man on the street in Keokuk. At the suggestion of the younger man Reynolds said, they drank some beer together. Reynolds said the stranger proposed that they ride around in Keokuk in car, as this was his first visit to Keokuk and that he wanted to see the town. After they had gone some distnce, the stranger suggested to Reynolds that they take a drink of whiskey from a vial he had in his traveling bag, which they did, and Reynolds said he knew nothing more until he came to in Palmyra early Friday morning. Reynolds told officers that his pocketbook, which contained $26, was missing.

The same morning the empty pocketbook, identified by Reynolds, was found in the flush box in the toilet at the Burlington depot here. A check-up of tickets sold for the southbound train showed that of a total of three, two were for Louisiana and one for St. Louis. Officers believe that the man that bought the St. Louis ticket was the man they seek.

Officers believe that the strang- C. er was attempting to drive Reynolds in his own car to St. Louis, but was unable to go further after the motor had become disabled north of Palmyra. Reynolds returned to his home in Keokuk Friday. Sheriff Arch Leonard, members of the Highway patrol and the members of the Palmyra police department scoured the entire country side in an effort to find the mysterious stranger, 1 but with no result.

Reynolds was identified here by Parker Bowles, proprietor of the Parke Bowles Grill here, who used to live in Keokuk and who knew Reynolds. Mr. Bowles learned of the man's plight through Night Officer John G. Teel who took charge of Reynolds when notified by the two garagemen, Max Cook and L. Simms, who answered the call to bring the stranded car into Palmyra.

MISSOURI RANKS HIGH IN SALE OF U. S. BONDS The state of Missouri ranks third in the sale of United States Savings bonds for May, 1936, according to a recent report by Wayne C.
