Boy scouts in all sections of the country have been asked to
watch for Horace E. Chandler, late of the American
Expeditionary Forces in France, who has been missing since
his discharge from Camp Upton several weeks ago.
Private Chandler was mustered out on August third, having
served with great courage and distinction in the Argonne
Forest, where he received honorable mention for unusual
heroism in raiding-single handed an enemy machine gun nest.
Private Chandler's home is in Greendale near Plattsburg in
New York. He is reported to have been seen in Albany several
days after the date of his discharge, by several young men
who had known him formerly, but on being questioned they
were not certain of the identity of their former friend.
His whereabouts are now a mystery and no reason can be
ascribed to his disappearance. It is thought that he may
have been the victim of foul play while on his journey home.
A wealthy and public spirited citizen of Greendale, Mr.
Horace E. Wade, whose namesake, Private Chandler was, has
offered the sum of one hundred dollars for any information
leading to the discovery of young Chandler's whereabouts.
