Henry Ralfus
Kentucky Post, Monday, 19 January 1903, page 7
After being given up for dead Henry Ralfus, 58, a tailor of
Patterson Street, Newport, has been found but at death's door. He mysteriously
disappeared from his home four years ago and nothing was heard from him until
two years ago, when it was learned he was in St Louis. All trace of him was lost
for a second time and Saturday a stepdaughter, also of Newport, received a
message from the Cincinnati Hospital stating Ralfus was dying and requested she
be notified.
It was thought after his first disappearance he had been drowned.
