Missing Melrose couple fuels city inquiries
Friday a Melrose resident, Mrs. Alton, sought help in locating her husband John Altman who vanished between Thursday night and Friday morning. The same period saw the disappearance of a hired girl aged seventeen. She suspects Altman fled with the girl, taking money and her earnings, leaving Mrs. Altman with five children. Altman, about 45, is described as a poor, disreputable man. Some think the girl may have gone to Minnesota for health reasons.
