Miss Lila Dale Russell, 23, of Albemarle Missing, Dec. 27, 1921

No News Received of Albemarle Girl

Baltimore, Md., Dec. 27—No news has been received this morning of the whereabouts of Miss Lila Dale Russell, 23, of Albemarle, N.C., who disappeared Sunday night from the south branch of the Young Women’s Christian Association here.

Miss Russell, a student of designing and costuming, vanished from the home presumably about 9 o’clock Sunday night as that was the last time she was seen there. She left a half-finished gown, her purse and jewelry on the table.

The police are inclined toward the theory that she may have wandered off as the result of some suddenly developing illness.
