Two Victims of the Raid.
The bodies of Champion and Ray were
brought into town yesterday and were
viewed at the undertaker's. The former
has twenty-eight bullets in his body, while
the remains Of Ray are unacceptable, the
legs and head being entirely consumed by
IRE, leaving only the charred and roasted
trunk. The sight of this causes the most
intense feeling, but there are no danger
GUS indications. No trouble is feared un
less it is obvious that justice, as under
stood by the "rustlers," will be defeated

On Champions person was found a diary
soaked with his hearts blood through tn,
