Search underway at former home of long-missing Muncie woman
MUNCIE, IN — A search was underway on Tuesday, Nov. 10, at the former home of a Muncie woman missing since 2013. A crew from the Muncie Sanitary District was using a truck equipped with a vacuum to remove sand from a cellar in a home along Delta Drive, in the unincorporated Hamilton Township community of Royerton, where Ashley Morris Mullis lived at the time of her September 2013 disappearance. After the sand was removed from the cellar, it was taken to an area down Delta Drive where FBI investigators were sifting through it. Mullis — the mother of three children, who was 28 when she disappeared — has been the subject of repeated search efforts for years. Her father, Don Morris, and others believe his daughter was killed by former local resident Daniel York, now deceased, who was romantically involved with the Muncie woman before she disappeared. York's family reportedly owned the Delta Drive home where Mullis had been staying in 2013. According to Jeff Stanley, chief deputy for the Delaware County Sheriff's Department, a detective with his department was recently told York had filled its cellar with sand not long after the woman's disappearance. "We were led to

Muncie man arrested on warrant faces new drug-related allegations
MUNCIE, IN — A Muncie man who was already the target of an arrest warrant faces new drug-related allegations. Jason Michael Combs, 48, was being held in the Delaware County Jail on Monday, Nov. 9, under a $50,000 bond, on suspicion of dealing in cocaine or a narcotic drug, possession of cocaine or a narcotic drug and possession of paraphernalia. Muncie police arrested Combs on Thursday, Nov. 5, in a traffic stop at Second Street and Macedonia Avenue. The arrest came after officers monitored activities at a home in the 1600 block of East Second Street where they believed Combs was staying. According to an affidavit, investigators found a green pill container that held about 12 grams of a "white rocklike substance" believed to be cocaine. Also seized were two syringes and a set of digital scales. Combs told officers that the cocaine was not his, the affidavit said, although he reportedly acknowledged that he at times sold cocaine.

ByGone Muncie: Dead Munsonians of a forgotten war
Before 1954, Veterans Day on Nov. 11 was known as Armistice Day. It originally commemorated the end of fighting in World War I. Hostilities stopped at the 11th hour of the 11th day of the 11th month of 1918, when a ceasefire between Germany and the Allied powers took effect. President Woodrow Wilson proclaimed the first Armistice Day in 1919. Congress formally recognized the observance in 1926, and it became a federal holiday in 1938. Sixteen years later, President Dwight Eisenhower signed legislation renaming it Veterans Day to honor all Americans who served in U.S. armed forces. Our community contributed significantly to the Great War in labor, treasure and blood. Much of the effort was coordinated by the Delaware County Council of Defense, which organized enlistment, morale campaigns, food production and war bond drives. The council sold more than $11 million ($245 million today) in bonds to local residents. More than 16,000 county women registered for home-front service through the Women’s Council of Defense, while thousands of laborers manufactured military supplies in Muncie factories, retooled for the war effort. In 1918 alone, county residents planted more than 7,000 victory gardens on 705 acres. About 4.7 million Americans served in the
