Missing Fairland man sparks search and murder theories
In Fairland, family and townspeople pursue every lead after the disappearance of Mr. Robertson, a young local paper owner and insurance broker. Horses were spooked then led toward his town as a country boy followed, suggesting foul play. The father and wife seek his recovery and have offered a $100 reward through Frisco Railroad officials. Local authorities drag the river and search woods, maintaining murder is the only plausible theory.
