Fort Wayne Railroad Man Believed Captured in Mexico

Hemenway” and a March 18 postmark from El Paso tie him to the incident. Hemenway, 29, a wandering railroad worker, had last visited Fort Wayne about a year ago and reportedly headed toward Oklahoma before likely crossing into Mexico to join insurgents.
