John Suddarth, a prominent and well Known middle-aged farmer, has been missing since Wednesday morning from his home on his farm in the Millstone locality, between Cannelton and Tobinsport, and all effort upon the part of his relatives and neighbors to locate him have been in vain. Mr. Suddarth arose on Wednesday morning about five o'clock, as was his custom, and after starting the fire in the kitchen stove, he left the house. It was thought by his wife that he had gone to attend to the stock at the barn and nothing was thought of his absence until the usual time for him to come to breakfast had passed. A search about the barn and premises did not locate him and the members of the faimly knowing that he sometimes took his gun and went out hunting upon the farm before breakfast went to see if he had taken the gun. The gun and two loaded shells that were kept in the house in an accustomed place were gone.
After several hours had passed and the man did not return home a search of the farm and surrounding country was begun but no trace of him could be found. On Thursday Ed Suddarth, a brother, and Dr. White were in Cannelton making inquiries but no one had seen him here. Nobody in the vicinity of the Suddarth home had seen him and his sudden disappearance is proving a mystery to his family and friends. Mr. Suddarth was in his usual good-natured mood and if he had any trouble of any kind he kept it to himself. Nothing unusual was noticed about his conduct. Every foot of ground within several miles of the Suddarth farm has been carefully gone over and no trace of the missing man has been discovered. No Cause can possibly be assigned as to why he would want to leave home.--Cannelton Enquirer
The missing man has six children at home, and he is a brother to Mrs. B.H. Parrish of Cloverport.
