Disappearance of Metropolitan Bank official in Rockland

Richard V. PD. Wood, assistant cashier of the Metropolitan National Bank New York in liquidation for fourteen years, vanished from his Piermont on the Hudson home. A warrant for misappropriating securities worth 64000 was issued by United States Commissioner Shields and Marshal McCarthy tried to arrest him, but Wood had apparently been warned.
