STRANGE STORY.-Some days ago we stated
that an unknown ms1, found dead in barn, was
summsrily buried without a coroDer's inquest
Since, we have been put in possession Of addi-
tonal facts. A man named Lunnon, representing
himself ss pauper, applied to the town for re-
lief. There being no almsh0use, he was sent to
the house Of the first seectmsD, and furnished
with mesPer board for several days. During one
Of the cold nights last week, the man was sent 10
the barn TO sleep, but forbidden TO sleep on the
bay be spent the night on the floor, and the next
morning was found oead. Whereupon the select
msn took charge Of the body, divested it Of its
clothes, placed the corpse in pine box, loaded
sistance of another man, buried the whole In the
cemetery without the aid OF parson or sexton.
The hssiy manner In which the whole affair was
put through places the seIectman in a very unen-
yieble position. There is considerable talk of
exhuming the body and giving it the privilege of
en- inquest and the benefit Of decent burial
