LOCAL INTELLIGENCE.

returned from Gait yesterday, where he had
been to hold an inquest on the body of an
unknown man found dead last Sunday on the
ranch of George T. Green, near that place.
That gentleman, while passing over his field
looking for stock, discovered the body lying
near tree There was piece of rope tied
around the neck tightly and piece to match
If was fastened to limb of the tree. It is
probable that the man had. been originally
suspended to the tree by the rope, and the
rope not being able TO sustain his weight had
parted after life was extinct. Appearances
indicated that the body had been lifeless fer
a day or two. Nothing was found about the
body except an old, much-worn letter, evi.
IDENTIFY from his brother in Germany,
dated at Sodotenbsrg, and a photo
graph of a soldier of the German army,
perhaps the brother who wrote the letter.
No one in the community knew anything of
him or his history. He was q man about 80
years of age, five feet eight inches in hight,
with light mustache, thin growth of chin
whisiers, and blue eyes. Several days
previous the man had been about Hicksville
in search of work. He was given food by
some of the more charitably inclined, but
was unsuccessful in his search for employ
ment. Since he disappeared from that place
until he was found dead as stated. The YER
dict of the Coroner's jury was to the effect
that the stranger had committed suicide by
means of q rope. The Coroner had him
buried at Hicksville.
