Young Syrian Bride Goes Missing After Wedding
Butte reports Sadie Sarkis, 16, the bride of Joseph Sarkis, disappeared five days after a January wedding in the Syrian colony on East Mercury street. The father and husband suspect foul play or elopement, while others doubt murder, with no law forcing return of a runaway wife. The county attorney indicated no crime in leaving a spouse, and Sadie reappeared briefly to tell her side before departing again.
