death of Marshall D. Hathaway from injuries
received in a fight with a bear on South
Boulder creek recently. We obtained oul
information from a cattle.dr over, who said
Hathaway was dead and buried. Hathaway is
not lead and we are reliably informed, this
time, that he has NO intention Of passing in
his chips. Our informant, who saw Hatha-
