most repusive object was encountered
by Henry Goodall of 1417 Oak street, and
Andrew Forman Of 1915 Oak, as they emerged
from the south side Of Golden Gate Park
yesterday afternoon. Lying under clump
OF bushes on II street. just opposite Twelfth
avenue, was the badly decompOSed body of
man. The remains were partly covered
by sand and the face was eaten away. When
the men recovered from their surprise they
reported the CHASTITY discovery to the park
police, who telephoued to the Morgue.
Deputy Coroner Bridgewo0d went after
the body. Near the remains a rusty bulldog
revolver, with one cartridge empty, was
found. 1t was evident that the man had
committed suicide by shooting himself ia
the head. From the decUmpOsed condition
OF the body it must have lain there at least
two weeks.
At the Morgue the clothing was
searched but nothing was found by which
the man could be identified. His dark
ribbed suit does not answer the description
OF the clothing worn by men who have dis
appeared within the past few weeks. In the
pockets of the clothing we're found an open
faced silver watch with a gold chain and
locket, pocket-knife, romb, bunch Of keys
and white linen handkerchief with red
border. There were 10 papers in the pos
session Of the deceased. He was evidently
a middle-aged man.
