Officlals of the Morris Fertilizer,
Company in Atlanta Saturday after
noon asked the police to ald them i)
a search for Fletcher Thigpen, 23, who
had disappeared for the third time
within a year, this time with SSOO of
the company's pay roll presumably in
his possession. They believed he had|
met with an accident or temporary
aberration.
Officials of the fertillzer company
late Saturday afterpoon told The
Georglan that the parents of Young|
Thigpen had reported to them that
they had received a letter shortly aft-|
er Saturday noon—mallea in Atlanta
during the forencon—from the boy
telling them that he intended to take
the pay roll, get to the Atlantic Coast '
and sall for Burope, there to join the
Allles. The parents could not be
reached to confirm this :
Young Thigpen, cashier for the com
pany, left thelr offices in the Third!
National Bank Bullding =at 11:30'
o'clock, with a satchel containing
about SSOO, on his way to the plant.
It was his custom to take the 11:30
car out Pledmont avenue, and a buggy !
was waliting at the end of the line to
take him to tne plant, Ile falled tol
arrive and after waiting for the next
car the driver of the buggy telephoned '
to the offices.
Fletcher Thigpen lives at No. 129!
Connolly street. Last October, just a
year ago, he disappeared mysterious-|
ly, und hls family located him in New
Orleans, after advertising for him iny
the Atlanta papers. Not long after
ward he disappeared again, and this
time the county policemen found him
floating on a raft down the Chatta
hoochee River. |
Officials of the company appeared to
have had complete confldence in Thig- !
pen, for after each of his absences he
returned to work in the offices. They
could offer no theory to account for
his disappearance Saturday.
Thigpen's trip to New Orleans,
where he was located only after two
weeks' search, was due, he sald, tv
fear of being court-martialed by his
military company for missing drilis.
He was about to embark on & cattle
steamer when found. i
The second disappearance Was
caused, he sald, by falling into the |
Chattahoochee River and striking his |
head against a log or stone. He sald |
he floated down the river to the next;
county, where he was seen and res
cued. He was ill for two weeks, but
recovered.
Vice President J. W. Robinson, of
the fertilizer company, sald Thlxpent
was a young man of excellent char- |
acter and worthy of confidence. He !
believed Thigpen had been held ap
and robbed, !
Thigpen had an engagement tojmeat |
a girl friend at } eo'clock Satyrday |
‘afternoon, and she called up t ffice
after that hour to inquire why ho was
delayed, ; a \ ¥
