  	Artie went missing in 1937 and was never found On Oct. 15, 1937, three people vanished from the Hollywood Cafe in Melvindale, leaving nothing but a shroud of mystery. The victims in this case were Thomas Lorimer, 24 years old, Flint, Melvindale; Mrs. Artie Mabie, 42 years old, Palmer, Melvindale; and Mrs. Margaret Redden, 35 years old, 723 Lansing, Detroit. News reports revealed that Redden and Mabie arrived at the Hollywood Cafe first and later became acquainted with Lorimer when he came in. At about 1 a.m. Oct. 15, they all left in Lorimer's new car and then returned to the cafe at 3 a.m. At that time, they were seen by Melvindale Officers Harry Bryngelson and Leonard Anderson. The officers pulled up to the vehicle and discovered Lorimer, Redden and Mabie inside. After a brief conversation, the officers then released the trio, seeing they knew all three of them and nothing appeared wrong. The officers then watched the vehicle and occupants drive away in the darkness on Oakwood toward Dearborn. Artie Carson Mabie was the oldest of the three. She was from Clearwater, Idaho, and had met and married Sylvester Mabie in Butte, Mont., in 1917. The couple moved first to Detroit, and then to Melvindale in 1925. They had no children. Artie Mabie and Margaret Redden knew each other well, as Redden worked for Sylvester Mabie as a secretary when he was Melvindale's city clerk from 1927-34. Margaret Boyd Redden was originally from Buffalo. Thomas Lorimer was born in Scotland on Feb. 14, 1913, and emigrated with his family to Quebec, Canada, in 1928.... In a strange twist of fate, news reports also said that the fathers of Margaret Redden and Artie Mabie also had disappeared without a trace. Sylvester Mabie, husband of Artie Mabie, was granted a divorce from his wife in 1942 in Wayne County Circuit Court when no trace of her could be found. He never remarried and died in 1955 after a long illness.
