On This Date in Minnesota History: May 30

May 30, 1915 - Two bloodhounds arrived in Bemidji this morning and were rushed immediately to the dense woods west of Red Lake where they will be used in an effort to locate Mrs. John Anderson, an aged woman of Jelle, who has been lost since last Wednesday. The dogs were secured through the efforts of Sheriff Johnson who has been giving every assistance possible to aid in locating the woman.

The hounds were taken to Red Lake by automobile and were soon working on the trail. Mrs. Anderson had been visiting at the home of a neighbor and became lost on her return trip. Searching parties have scoured the woods for her, one man reporting that he had seen her 12 miles from her home running through the woods. Mrs. Anderson is believed to be insane.
