He was gagged and his hands were tied behind him. He was almost daft from excitement and told a story that rivals a fairy tale iu mystery. He stated that he remembered noth ing that has happened since Tuesday night, nor does he know where he lias been, what he has been doing or how he •was gagged and tied. He was the agent of the Georgia Southern road at Lake Park, also agent of the express company at the same place. Last Tuesday night he left on the night train for Hahir i to visit his pa rents. People from this city saw him aboard the train, but saw nothing of him afterwards. When the train reached Hahira the conductor stated that he did not get off there, and when his unex plained absence from his duties became known the railroad and express officials began an investigation, which found his affairs all right. He is a married man and the son of James B. Miley, a prominent farmer and millman in the Hahira district. YALE SILVER CLUB FORMED. Its Members Pass Resolutions Apologising For the Bryan Incident.
