Collar Found Ties Alameda Abduction To Alaska
In Alameda Charles Elias found a dog collar from J. J. Buss of 1804 linking to the disappearance of a dog named Nigger twenty four years ago. A man from the Bliss home asked to buy the dog before vanishing for Alaska, leaving the case partly solved by the recovered collar. The sea may hold answers from wrecks along the coast. A separate note reports a five legged pig born in Pennesburg Pennsylvania and killed by the mother.
