A. J. Naham, a respectable farmer
living in Bethel village, was found wan
dering in an insane condition near his
home on Saturday evening, without his
| lat and with wound upon the back of
ls head. As there was a railroad bridge
.gear by passing oyer the highway, and
| as his hat was found underneath the
| bridge and bis clothes were muddy it
| Was' supposed that in the darkness Of
I1htevening he had fallen through the
brilge, but later developments seem TO
s&pdcate that he was assaulted with
club or other weapon Mr, Naham
| reelected nothing that happened after
he PASSED q switch in the railroad track
aone,rods above the bridge. AS he is a
| striCgly temperate man and his course
did not lead across the bridge, and there
| Doug tracks found leading from the
spo, 1.-THE theory of an assault looks
probable.
