BEST HELD
ON CHARGE
FMURDER
Police Believe He Killed Man
Whose Discovered Body Was
Found in Pond.

Lynn, Mass. Oct. 1s.-John c. Best, of
North Saugus. was held without bail un-
Ill Saturday in the police court this morn
ing on suspicion of having murdered
George L. Bailey.
Today the police are investigating
things about the old Break-EIeart Hin
farm, where Bailey and Best worked and
others are dragging the waters of Glen
mere for the missing head and arms.
The watchchain "A broken link. found
on the trousers. which clothed the trunk
hauled from the pond i'm it's gunny sack
covering were OF woven hair attached TO
rubber bar Albert Day and his wife OF
North Saugus who knew Bailey well
states that the missing farmer wore a
chain of this description.
They also remember the shirt he wore
frequently of dark material with a fine
white stripe similar TO that on the body
These things with Best's own admission
that the clothing OF the mutilated body
resembled Bailey's together with the
identification of the cobblng on the shoAs
found i'm the two bags containing the
legs and feet of the body by Cobbler
Brewer. as work done by him for Bailey
go to confirm the police theory that the
murdered man is no other than the miss
ing lodge keeper and farmer OF Break
Heart HILL
A new clue considered OF Importance
has been developed i'm North Saugus. at
Howletts MIL on Saugus river a good 9.
of "a mile away from the Break Heart
farm, but on a wood road leading through
the forest by the farm and out to the
Newburyport turnpike.
This road was often used by Bailey i'm
driving 10 Lynn. Bailey was frequent
caller at the Day house on his trims lie
worked for Mr.. Day some in getting out
wood and together they conferred about
the woodland and grazing ground in the
district known as the Thousand Acre lot
About week ago, probably little
over, Mr.. Day is not sure, he and his
wife were awakened shortly after mid
night by the barking of their dog Then
they heard the rumble OF wheels and Mrs.
Day remarked that either Bailey must be
getting out early or somebody had been
up hunting for mushrooms which grow
In abundance I'm the meadow land in that
vicinity.
Then came the clatter OF the horses
hoofs and the rattle of the wheels on the
wooden bridge that spans Saugus river,
where II runs from Howletts dam TO
Prdnkers pond, and they knew that the
wagon had been driven out on the road
that runs from Lynn TO Warfield From
this road leads the boulevard drive
through Lynn woods, coming out at wy
oma, and from there Within short dis
tance OF Floating Bridge pond. This Is n
short cut 10 the pond and much used by
people who drive from Saugus to Glen
mere.
The Days did not investigate thinking
nothing unusual of the occurrence. until
today when they learned OF the murder
and fits mystery.
