PROBABLY MRS. MARY [. LEACH,
Remains Found in the Winooski River
Thought by Relativaa to be Hars


Thought by Relatives to be Hers
The hody Of the woman found Tuesday
evening in the Winooski river was at tho
undertaking rooms of J A. Corbn yes
terday. In the afternoon NJ. j. Leach and
Barney Porter of Fletcher came 10 Bur
linGton to see If the remains were those
of Mrs. Leach. They made thorough In
spection of the body and clothes but the
flesh was so badly decomposed and there
were so few garments that it was almost
impossible to arrive at a decision. Mr.
Leach said the shape Of the head and feet
was similar to those of his wife. The uI-
per teeth were gone and several on the
lower jaw were missing. Mrs Leach had
false upper teeth and teeth in the lower
jaw were gone corresponding to those Of
the dead woman. The ears were also
pierced. Although unable to positively
identity the black waist Mr.. Leach said
it looked like the one his wife wore.
A. II. Iafountan, the clerk at the Sher-
wood House. who registered for Mrs.
Leach, saw the remains yesterday and
recognized a similarity in the faces of
the dead woman and Mrs. Leach.
At the close of the investigation Mr..
Leach said he thought the remains were
those of his wife. although he was not
positive. Mr.. Porter, the father Of Mrs.
Leach. was unable to find any marks of
Identification because he had not seen his
men searched the banks OF the Winooski
river and endeavored to find the clothing
OF the woman.
In speaking of his wife yesterday Mr.
Leach said that insanity had run in the
family. her mother being demented for
several years. SO far as known no other
one in the family had taken their own
life. Unless some clue is found, which
shows that the body is not that of Mrs.
Leach, the remains will be taken to
Fletcher for burial.
Mrs Celia Fitzgerald of Fletcher, a
sister of Mrs. Leach. came with her hus-
band to burlington after Mr.. Leach and
Mr.. Porter had returned home. Mrs Fitz-
gerald declined to look at the remains and
said that she would be unable to identify
her sisters clothes. She gave an import
ant bit Of evidence, however, W hen she
stated that her sisters feet We're the same
size as her own Undertaken Corbn meas
ured the feet OF the dead woman and
found them to correspond in size TO those
of Mrs Fitzgerald.

SERGT. Won NYVENHEIM HOME,
Has Been Attached to Gen. Chaffee's
Staff in China.

Ordnance Sergeant A. Won Nyvenheim,
who was formerly stationed at Fort Ethan
Allen has returned to that post after an
absence of nearly a year in China Ser
geant Won Nyvenheim left the United
States last August and went directly to
China where he remained until May when
he left for home coming by way Of Manila.
He has had an opportunity for seeing many
things of interest in China and has inn
proved it in a manner which gives him
many interesting anecdotes and opinions
concerning the country and people. In
China he was attached to Gen. Charee
headquarters and was the Interpreter oe
the representative OF the United States on
the international committee, which was
appointed to have charge OF the city. AZ
the meetings OF this committee the lam
guage usually spoken was German. This
IS the native tongue of Sergeant Won
NyVenheim and he found friends and
classmates among the German troops.
or the situation in China the sergeant
does not feel at all sure. He does not trust
the Chinese as 4 people to any great de-
gree and in connection with the looting OF
which so much has been told SAID the Chi
nese were by all means the champions. The
natives are very apt at becoming acquaint-
they secure an opportunity and are in
Vcntive. The troops Of the United States
he says, were the best equipped in China
and this was especially true of the cavalry
The destruction OF property appalling
but the Chinese are now beginning the
work Of reconstruction. Only $50 soldiers
of the United States are now left as a Legal
ton guard. Other countries also have in
creased legation guards.

Remains Taken From Winooski River
May be Those Of Mrs. Mary l..
Leach of Fletcher.

The body of a woman was discovered
floating in the Winoosi River Tuesday
night at about o'clock.It was f1rstseen at
the rear of John Louthers house and Mr..
Louther, Elmer Walker and william Bet
ters took boat and brought the remains
to the shore just east of the cotton mill on
Barrett street Health Officer Watkins
was called and the police department mott
fed. An examination of the body showed
the only clothing to be a black waist, cor
sets and corset cover. The remains were
badly decomposed, the flesh in places be-
ing SO far gone that the bones could be
seen, The hair was entirely gone There
were no rings upon the hands and few
marks Of Identification could be found. Dr.
Watkins said that it was impossible to
tell how long the body had been in the
water but he thought 1t could not have
been over two weeks. When found the wo-
man 5 head was under water, which in
dicates that the woman could not have
been dead long for when the brain be-
comes decomposed the head will float 1t
