confident he had seen Sheehan only the
day previous to the announcement that
he was missing. But Sheehan's wife
and son were confident his remains
were in the ruins. for surely they

souvenir of the explosion in his game
knee and made up his mind IL Il ever
bothered him again he would endeavor
to have the leg examined by a veteri-

leg commenced to give trouble again,
and Chief Flannery sent for DIR. Nc
Gregor. who found a foreign body
pressing aganis the knee joint on the
inside of the lame Les. On 10Y Il.
II was found to be a piece of n cor
rugated iron that covered the ware
houses that were blown up. The piece
of iron. about the size of a one-cent
piece. had been blown into the flesh at
the time of the explosion. Removing
the piece of iron was a frightfully pain
operation, but old Jim seemed To
know II was for his good and scarcely
finched or moved a muscle.

working in a marble cutters
establishment on Lower Montana
the Hale house several weeks before

a man employed at one Of the
marble works who had been rooming
at the Hale house but had left there

ever, was not Kreigbaum. and he was
not one of the missing.
