CHATTANOOGA, Tenn April sa.-A shock
ing discovery was made last night near Spring
City, Tenn. The remains of James Sloan
were found in the woods near the house of his
uncle, one of the leading men in that section.
Sloan had been missing for a month and his
body had evidently lain in the woods four
weeks. The remains were discovered by the
stencil they emitted and were shockingly mu-
tilated by beasts. A note was found on his
person saying he had killed himself, but this
is thought to be a blind and that he was
murdered. The awful discovery creates a
great sensation.
