Special to Times Republican.
Keokuk, March 6.-There is now no
doubt that John Edmunds, a farmer
living near this place, was buried allVe.
Edmunds was we'll known in this city
and the announcement that he was laid
in his grave while yet alive caused a
great deal of talk.
According to the story, Edmunds was
supposed to have died the early part
of last week from heart trouble. He
had ridden quite long distance IN
company with a man of the name OF
Gus Reiling and became very cold. The
supposition was that this ride aided
his death to no little degree.
An inquest was held and the coro-
ner's Jury held that the death was due
to heart failure. Many of his friends
could not accept this theory and this
belief led to an investigation.
The result of the investigation was
that the body was found in the grave
face downward. showing that he had
been buried before life became extinct.
Had the body not been inferred so hur-
riedly the friends of the dead man are
confident that he would have been liv-
ir, today.
