At that time he had made his way back to his old home located at 2100 block East Chase Street. He was found talking to a neighbor and had suffered what appeared to be cigarette burns from a person he described as a “bad boy”. He enjoyed cars and would, therefore, get into any car, if he was asked to. He was spotted on a few occasions just after his disappearance. A neighbor of the Hagers’, recognized him at the corner of Dundalk and Eastern Avenues that afternoon. Also, a family friend of the Hagers’, told Mrs. Hager that in 1962 a young man about 26 or 27 was seen in a grocery store in Dundalk.

Missing since October 2, 1947 from Galesburg, Illinois
Distinguishing Characteristics: White male.
Paul Love disappeared from the University of Illinois Galesburg branch on October 2, 1947. Paul Love of Hinsdale registered at the U of I branch campus on the grounds of the former Mayo Hospital in Galesburg following his release from the Army during World War II. He was last seen in downtown Galesburg where he attempted to cash a check at a music store for the purchase of a record. The request to cash the check was declined and Love said he would be back later. The state police mobile laboratory carrying grappling and diving equipment was brought in to help search both Lake Storey and Lake Bracken. When the search of the countryside failed to produce any results, local, state and federal authorities continued the search with no results. Six years after the disappearance of Paul Love, human bones were discovered on a farm three miles east of Wataga. Naturally speculation was that the remains might be those of the missing student. Another report linking the bones to the missing student was the examination of a .22-caliber Marlin rifle that was discovered near the scene of the bones. Finally in early March 1953 it was concluded the remains were not those of Love. The conclusion was arrived at by comparison of dental records.
Ronald Henry Tammen, Jr.
Missing since April 19, 1953 from Oxford, Ohio
Distinguishing Characteristics: White male. Brown hair, brown eyes and muscular build.
Tammen was last seen in old Fisher Hall, at Miami University, in Oxford, Ohio on April 19, 1953. Ronald Tammen was a hardworking Miami University student until the night on April 19, 1953, when he walked out of Room 225. About 20:30 he entered his room after returning from a road engagement with the Campus Owls, a dance band for which he played string bass. Outside sat his 1938 Chevrolet sedan. It was reported that he heard something that disturbed him, and he went into the hall to investigate. He left his wallet, car keys and personal items on his desk. He also left the lights on, a book open, the radio playing and his clothes in the closet. His bank account, with about $200, remained active. Authorities checked all bus, rail and air terminals. The Air Force ROTC sent 400 men to help students search the countryside. Friends and family, from Maple Heights, near Cleveland, said Mr. Tammen wouldn’t leave without telling them. At first, police developed an amnesia theory, but later they did consider that he might have deliberately disappeared. Later that night Mrs. Carl Spivey in Seven Mile, about 15 miles east of Oxford, heard a knock on her door. She saw a young man — who fit Tammen’s description — standing outside. When she opened the door, he asked her how to get to the bus station. As there was no bus station in Seven Mile, she told him to go to Hamilton. She noticed he had a smudge of dirt on a cheek and his eyes were vacuous. Snow was on the ground that night, but he wore no coat or hat. She shut the door and expected to hear his car start, but it didn’t. Then she realized the young man was walking. There’s every belief he was Ronald Tammen. The supposition is that he had an attack of amnesia.

p.s. Hey. ** Bernard Welt, Hi. Well, yes. I like art criticism, obviously, but what drives me nuts are the wall descriptors plastered right next to artworks in museums that tell dumb you what’s really going on in what you’re looking at. Don’t think I’ve ever come across one of those that wasn’t like the textual equivalent of Ivanka Trump. You know Peter Clough! I think finding his work re: building the post was my introduction. Well, always game for a post, man. Amsterdam can be a sweetie when you don’t live there, and even sometimes when you do. Welcome to Paris. See you tomorrow if not before. ** David Ehrenstein, Hi. ** Steve Erickson, Okay, interesting. I do want to see ‘Midsommar’ for sure. I’ll be prepared. I liked ‘Hereditary’ for the semi-most-part, but it did/does sound like maybe the weaknesses of it are more upfront on the new one? A la ‘Us’ versus ‘Get Out’ maybe. Thank you very much for sharing your thoughts! ** NLK, Hi! I make the gif works entirely on my own. I use a blank blog post/page as my template/workshop. When the works are collected into books, Michael Salerno at Kiddiepunk does all the final technical work, so he does the coding involved to turn them into downloadable books. Thanks a lot for hooking me up with your works! I’ll watch them as soon as I’m finished with the p.s. I appreciate it. Obviously, I’ll let you know my thoughts on them. Great, thank you a lot! Very cool that you’re upcoming in x-r-a-y. I look at that site regularly, and I’ll keep a careful eye out, or met me/us know when your piece is launched. Thanks again, a great pleasure! ** _Black_Acrylic, Hi, B. Always so happy when a post or something from it winds up being useful. Let me know what happens with his project. There must be a way, surely. ** Misanthrope, Eek, well, you sound pragmatic about the heat. Best way to deal. Over here, summers have transformed from reliably mild-ish things to completely haywire, unpredictable things. As have the winters too. ** KeatonSourChicken, Ha. Glad you liked it. Like your reveries. I miss cassettes. Problems, yeah, but a sweet form. Tender grandpas. Enjoy and make the most of your lock-up. Man, that sounds heavenly. ** Bill, Hey!
