Pile of Clothing Found Near Slream
(By Telegraph— J
AUGBZLAND, Last Night. Mystery surrounds the discovery on Sunday morning of a pile of clothing "011 a bridge across a stream at Karaka •and the finding of an unemployment levy hook bearing the name of George A Worley. The police are making inquiries in various parts of New Zealand to • determine i'f Worley is missing from his home. So far as it is known he is not a resident of Auckland. At 8 o'clock on Sunday morning a ,'passerby noticed clothes lying in a heap iat the side of the bridge. He found a jpair of trousers, a waistcoat, collar and | tio, a painter's white coat and a levy ibook. He communicated with the constable at Papakura and a search was at ^nce made in the locolity but no one appeared to be missing. Inquiries made , at the office of the Auckland Painters' Union showed that if the clothing belonged to Worley and he is a painter he •is not a member of the Auckland Union. One suggestion is that among other things th® clothing was stolen from Worley and subsequently thrown near the bridge although there is evidence that the different articles were arranged in a fairly orderly pile. In any event the police are endeavouring to find the whereabouts of Worley.
