the supposed victim of robbery and murder
was taken from the river there was not sign
of violence ON it save a slight cash which
was evidently due 10 fall, the pockets had
not been rifled, his diamond ring was still on
his finger. his gold watch and chain were in
their place and SO We're his memorandum and
pocketbooks, small change and other property
including even the key 60 his room at the
Palmer house.
The detectives had proved tolerably clear
case of robbery and murder; but the corpse
still more clearly proved that the man had
simply fallen into the river and drowned.
Once the truth was known, most of the other
evidence was dissipated. Some of the Wit
nesses, who had been sure they had seen
Leach drunk, examined the corpse and oa-
cided that they had seen ''some other man. ~
One of the women he had visited, and who
was referred to as the veiled lady" came
forward and proved TO he an invalid, an old
acquaintance of the dead man and lady
of the highest respectability. How much If
any, of the other testimony was correct is
still uncertain The serious fact-serious to
his friends and to all travelers--is that if
the corpse had not been found, Rowland
Leach must have been remembered only as
one who had thrown away his life in a reck-
less debaach The detectives had proved it.
Are there many cases where the dead are thus
wrongedl
1t is proved however, 10y men who knew
him well, that Leach had been drinking some
that evening, and 50 the presumption holds
that lie became Intoxicated and in that CON
dition fell into the river. The smuggling
and robbery were purely mythical. Deceased
was a native of Connecticut, unmarried, very
active in business aud Of only moderately con
vivial habits
