Case of unknown identity

A man without clothes and of unknown identity was found in a helpless condition at the Bus Stop Park yesterday.

The vicar, who could see the poor man from his office, ran over to the park and gave the confused man a towel to cover his noble parts, and then left him in the care of Dr. Haydock. The man is, according to the doctor, about 40 years old, and not able to remember who he is or how he ended up in St. Mary Mead in such an unfortunate condition.

Dr. Haydock has alarmed the police and consulted Miss Marple in order to figure out what has happened.

If you have any knowledge of this man, please call the St. Mary Mead Police, or, if you prefer, contact us here at the Anno Chronicle, and we will hand over the information to the police anonymously.

Aiming for victory

The winner of the St. Mary Mead Spelling Bee, young David Clement (10), is studying very hard to prepare for the competition next month in Market Basing. “I think I can win” he says, “but there are some very good candidates from Much Benham” We cross our fingers for our own David!

Polio vaccination program

All citizens of St. Mary Mead are called to join the polio vaccination program introduced by the Public Health Department and Dr. Haydock. There have been some resent cases of Poliomyelitis fever in Danemouth, and no matter if you are rich or poor, everybody should take the vaccine Dr. Haydock says, for the common good. The program has started, and you can get your polio vaccine at the Church of St.Mary Mead every morning from 07:00 – 10:00 this week.

Brazen thieves steal old map

Wednesday night brazen thieves broke in to the Clement’s residence, while the unknowingly family was fast asleep.

Mrs Clement called the police as soon as she realized that they’ve had unwelcome visitors, but the strange thing is that nothing has been stolen, except from a pre-war map of St. Mary Mead.

“I have no idea what anyone would want with this map”, a startled Mrs Clement says, “They could have just asked for it, if they wanted it”.

Happy to be alive

The unfortunate Kizzie Buckland, who was hit by a meteor last month, was discharged from the hospital last night, to her husband’s great delight.

Mrs Buckland is by far finished with her treatment, and will be supervised at home by Special Nurse Ingrid Hawes, until she is ready for her next skin transplantation. Topical antibacterial therapy and change of bandages every three hours are still necessary, and even when performed by professionals like Mrs Hawes, it is very painful for the patient.

The Buckland family is very happy that they can spend the waiting time together, and are very grateful for the help and assistance from the hospital, friends and neighbours.

Even though her wounds are very obvious, and her beautiful long hair is now replaced by a wig, Kizzie is hopeful that she one day will regain her looks. “But if not”, she says, “I’m still very happy to be alive.”

The characters and buildings from this story are from the AnnoSims Group project St. Mary Mead, loosly based on the novels of Agatha Christie. (Anno Sims is now closed, but you can find my own creations for the project here at KSW.)
