u
WoopBiNE, August %. -Considerabl
excitement has been occasioned in the
vicinity Of Woodbine by the unearthing
Of a skeleton on Harvey Lewis farm,
about four miles west of the city.
What makes the case rather interest
ing is the fact of positive evidence
that the skeleton has not been in the
ground more than six years--possibly
for a much shorter time About six
years ago large barn on the place
was burned. and several skeletons of
horses were buried to a considerable
depth right on the spot which marked
the scene of the contiagration. The
human skeleton which WAS unearthed
was near the surface of the ground
and directly over the skeleton OF a
horse, which was Dnried at the time
Of the Are, as shown by further ex-
cavation. No official action has been
taken III the matter. and the almost
complete skeleton is in the possession
of Mr.. Lewis No theories have been
advanced as to the identity of the
remains.
