SEATTLE, CWashD, January 4.-Ac-
Cording to a story signed by II. II. Nc
NaughtOn of Haines Mission Alaska,
Charles Hopkins, a wealthy Seattle
man was buried alive December 18th
Haines is greatly excited over the af-
fair and there is much bitterness. Hop
kins was subject to CataleptiC fits and
on several occasions remained I'm a
trance for several days. on December
9Th, while chOpping wood, he lost con-
seriousness. -Four days later he was
buried, despite the fact that many
thought him still alive. This summary
action aroused great indignation and
six days later the grave was opened
the body was exposed to the cold air the
te body was exposed to te cold air the
skin turned purple. Some people secur-
ed control Of the body and had 1t buried
privately, without waiting for develop
ments, This action caused much trou-
BILE.
Physicians at Skagway express the
opinion that Hopkins was coming out
Of a trance when he was buried the
the second time. 1t is thought that
Hopkins knew what was going on, but
had no power to give any sign. II was
Hopkins belief that he would be buried
alive. This, taken in connection with
the fact that there was no physician "a
certify as to his actual death, has
given matters a very complicated turn
Hopkins owned valuable mining prop
erty 1t is said that he leaves a wife
and two sons in Seattle They have not
been located.
