GOLFERS, w. Va, Feb. 29.-People
are much excited over a recent find
which, it is claimed, clears UP mys-
terry of thirty-two years standing-the
remains of four human beings having
been discovered in an abandoned coal
mine a mile east of here. David Sny-
der has explored the old mine, which
has not been worked since the sixties,
and discovered the human bones. One
of the skeletons was sitting upright
against a ledge. Beside this skeleton
was sitting a flask that contained
notes explaining the mysterious disap-
pearance of John Ewing, Ben Ayers.
Tom Ackelson and Joe Obney thirty
two years age. The notes were written
in pencil but are we'll preserved. They
read as follows:
November 2, 1S63.-Should this ever
reach the outside world let it be
known that we (giving names) are
prisoners here owing to the caving in
of the mine. We are deserters and
were in hiding here when the mine
caved in. Food and water all gone.
We are doomed, as no one outside is
aware of our whereabouts. This is
about the eighth day Of our imprison-
ment.
November 4.-John Ewing and Tom
Ackelson have just killed Ben Ayers;
are eating him. have already eaten
my boot leg. The water in the mine
is terrible. Our oil is getting scarce:
air becoming foul. only know the
day of the month by my watch"

close this note in this flask to preserve
it, If possible, so that if ever found our
sad fate will be known.

Several of the old residents here
abouts remember these men. It was
generally believed they had been killed
in battle. As no relatives of the de-
ceased men could be found their re-
mains were given in charge of Andy
