# What This Page Shows This page is a "Missing" department from Street & Smith's Western Story Magazine—a public-service column helping readers locate lost relatives and friends. The top section explains the department's purpose and submission guidelines, warning readers not to send money to unknown correspondents claiming to need travel funds. The bulk of the page consists of short notices describing missing persons, including their last known locations, physical descriptions, and contact information for those seeking them. The entries span from historical disappearances (like David Whipple, missing since 1864) to more recent cases from the 1930s, reflecting the magazine's role as a community resource for locating missing family members across America.
