A SKELETON FOUND.
Who was He and how Did He piee


j. A. Woodcock received word from
ID. w Ollie of the east end, that the
remains of man had been found on
the prairie about IA miles south and
a little west of Coolidge. Tuesday
morning he went to Coolidge on the
train. There he took a carriage and
accompanied by Messrs. Ollie and
Myron Kriesler, went to where the re-
mains were. They found the skele-
ton only of a man, and some clothing.
Everything that could be found
was gathered mp, and by Mr. Wood
cock brought to Lamar On Wednes4
day he impanelled the following
jury; Silas Martin, james p. An
drews, 7. L. Denny, L. H. Colebourn,
James Stephenson and John W.
Graham.
The inquest was held at the court
house. But two witnesses were ex
amiued, and they threw no light up
on the identity Of the man, or the
manner OF his death. The first wit
ness Mr. Ollie testified in substance
to finding the remains while driving
cattle about . miles soEth and little
east Of whore he lives. The country
there is sparsely settled, the nearest
houses are those of W. H. Sanders
about two miles southeast. Mr..
Kriesler lived about / ! miles west,
and a Mr. Clark about 4 miles north
east. The houses Of Kriesler and
Sanders could be seen from where
the remains were found. He also
described the clothing etc. found
scattered about the place. There was
a coat. vest, three shirts and small
portions Of a pair of pants There
were also 3 small bottles, the largest
holding half pint and the others
being yials. A cob pipe aud hand
kerchief comprised the whole. There
were no papers, or anything of that
nature to give a clue to the owner.
The testimony of Mr. Kriesler was
the same as that of Mr..
Dlle, and threw no light whatever
upon his identity. Mr.. Kriesler
thought he had been dead a month
or six weeks, and that he was from
35 to 30 years old.
Mr. Ollie testified that he was over
the same road May "a and then saw
nothing of the remains.
The jury returned the following
verdict;
STATE or CoLoaApo,
COUNTY oy pRuwgRS
'An inquisition holden at Lamar
in Prowers county, Colorado, on the
23rd day of August, A. d. 1893, of a
person unknown lying there dead, by
the Jurors whose names are hereto
said jurors upon their
oaths do say that saii unknown per
son come to his death in manner and
by means unknown to the jury, and
at a time probably within the last 3
months or 90days hereto preceding .
The clothing was cheap and coarse
and indicated that their owner was a
Iaboring man. The coat and vest was
a broad check, a grey and brown
entirely destroyed, the others We're in
mixed. OF the shirts one was almost
a good state of preservation. They
we're coarse and cheap of checked
goods. One shoe only was found.
1t was a congress but of heavy leath-
er, and not badly worn. Both bones
of the right arm We're broken but it
may have been done by cattle or coy
otes. Nothing else was found to in
dictate violence. The remains to-
cether with the clothing were turned
