THE BEAR PAW SKELETON.
A Probable Glue to the Identity of
the Murdered Man.

In the MINER of the 10th inst. was
published q letter from three pros.
pectors who had found about sixty
miles from Bear Paw the skeleton OF
a man, near which was picked up a
letter, the contents of which seemed
to indicate that the remains were
those of J. F. Lee, and that he had
been in negotiation with J. F. Boyle,
of St. Louis, M. T., for the purchase
of the Snowdrift mine, located near
Hog'em, Jefferson county. We are
now in receipt of the following letter,
which may lead to the complete
Identification of the remains and pos
sible detection of the perpetrator of a
terrible crime:
RADERsRURG, July 1s.
Editor Miner:
I am the sister of James F. Boyle,
referred to in your issue of July 10.
Ny brother resides at st. Louis, JEFF
ferson county, but is now away from
nome, and I have concluded to COM
municate with you in his
stead. I know that my
my brother had made a contract
with two men and I think he said
one of them was an old prospector.
He waited five weeks for them to
come and take the mine, and finally
that the men had backed
out. I am sure that the two Of them
left together, and the names of both
can be ascertained, and the discovery
of the whereabouts of the dead mans
companion may lead to important
as to his fate. If you
will send me the letter addressed to
my brother, by J. F. Lee, will en-
deavor to ascertain who his relatives
are. Yours respectfully,
MRS. A. NJ. EAsTERLY.
The inference from the suggestions
in Mrs. Easterly's letter
is very apparent, and the man who
started with J. F. Lee in his fatal
trip across the country, should make
himself known at once, otherwise
measures should be Immediately
taken by the proper authorities to
ferret out his whereabouts.

On the surface McSwiggle was a great
temperance man, but he and his son, whs
made no pretensions, frequently had very
pleasant time. The other night the Cold
Water club met at the McSwiggle mansion,

him quiet while he joined in the exercises of
the club When speeches were called for,
McSwiggie became enthusiastic in his re-

"Aha," he cried in tragic ton es, 81 see the
