phoned the Lewiston officers that be had

vision of the Boston s. Maine at MILL
ken's Mill, near Saco, early Sunday

he thought it might be that of his BROTH
er, who left Portland for Boston on the
o O'Clock freight on Saturday night.
Joyce gave his bro,her's name as Will
liam II. Joyce, and Deputy Marshal Firth
tsiephoned his description to Coroner
Bradbury of Saco, who said that 1t cor
responded almost exactly with that Of the
body, but instead of full face. such as
Joyce claimed his brother had the face
was not full. Joyce said his brother had
a mark W. j.. on his left or right fore
arm, but the coroner was not sure that
such q mark was ON the BODY. Joyce
was pretty confident that the man was
his brother.
Charles d. Conley called. at the police

description Of the body found on the b.
s. NJ. tracks at Miliiken's Mill, he be-
lieved 1t to be that of relative OF his

Bradbury Tailed almost exactly with that
of his relative who left Portland for Bos-
ton on freight train Saturday night.
Coroner Bradbury Is of the opinion that
