ORIGINALLY BELIEVED TO BE MURDERED
OFFICIALS PRAISE THE AGENCY
The Pinkerton National Detective Agency has concluded a thorough investigation into the case of a merchant who went missing last month. Conditions at the time of his disappearance led immediately to the theory of murder. However Pinkerton agents studying his accounts made some startling discoveries. John O'Neil, one of the most popular and widely known merchants in St. Louis, disappeared without a trace last month.
Initially thought to have been murdered, certain facts tied to his disappearance have given cause for suspicion. Officials hired the Pinkerton Agency to investigate. The Agents report that Mr. O'Neil was short in his accounts.
Through his shop, Mr. O'Neil handled several large sums of money and according to his friends fulfilled his trust honorably. After it was disclosed he was up to $5,000 short on his accounts and had taken to playing cards regularly, the suspicion of his friends was that he had taken his own life. After a thorough search of the hills and surrounding countryside O'Neil was found in a ravine, half-mad and wishing to die, saying he had brought shame on his name and family.
Officials and family members praised the agency for solving the mystery and finding O'Neil, who is recuperating from his injuries and exposure. Founded in the 1850s, the Pinkerton Agency has been instrumental in solving several disturbances, including labor disputes, and was even known to have foiled an assassination plot on the president.
