"A farmer expects to reap much more

David sowed adultery, murder and re-

The people of the community certainly

UNKNOWN BODY FOUND IN THE RIVER.
Being Unidentified 1t was Buried at Rock
ingham.

ingham.
Tuesday afternoon three children who
were walking near the banks Of the Con-
necticut river about mile this side, of the
Springfield line and about half mile north
OF Commissary brook, noticed very often
sive odor, and looking about the shores
they discovered the decaying body OF a
man. 1t was lying upon some bushes over
the water, and about four ieet abose the
water. 1t had evidently come down the
river during the recent high water and the
bushes being bent over by the current the
body catching upon it remained until the
water went down, leaving it exposed to the
sun and weather for some weeks, it being
in locality which is seldom visited by any
one.
Notice was given to residents in the
vicinity and the next day undertaken Chase
was notified and sent Mr.. Keefe with an
assistant to care tor it. 1t being in such an
unfrequented place and the description of
it so meagre they could not find it Wednes-
day, but on Thursday were successful in
getting into the locality.
1t was horrible sight. The body was
that of very large sized man, evidently
more than six feet tall, and well proper
toned, perhaps 35 years old. One tooth
was gone from the upper and one from the
lower jaw. The hands and feet with por-
tons of the arms and legs had decayed and
fallen off, as had the flesh from parts of the
body, particularly from the face and head.
There was no sign of any clothing, or any
thing by which it would be possible to
identify it. 1t had evidently been in the
water tor some months, probably since early
in the spring.
Considerable difficulty was experienced
in getting to it owing to its position over
the mud and water, and because of its con-
dition-it would fall in pieces if touched.
BY taking stout canvass and placing under
it and wrapping it up, it was towed down
the river a little and secured. The town
authorities ordered it buried, which was
done in the old cemetery near the old church.
No idea, or clue, as to identity could be
found, there being absolutely nothing to
describe it by except what is given above.
1t might have come down many miles from
the head waters of the Connecticut, or from
some one of its numerous tributaries, or it
may have been lost short distance above,
but no inquiries have as yet been made for
any one known to be missing. 1t will
probably always remain an entire, but un-
pleasant mystery.
