Found Dead in the Woods.-Moses B.
Kusell, who wandered away from his home in
Baltimore, on the 31st of August was found
dead in the woods on the Sheppard Asylum
property, on Saturday morning last by
colored man working on the place and who
had gone to nearby spring for some water.
There was little left of the body but the skele-
ton and it was plain that it had lain there
long time. In the pockets of the clothing was
found small sum of money and papers bear
ing the mans name and address in the city.
Justice Herbert was notified and, after viewing
the remains, deemed an inquest unnecessary as
all the circumstances pointed to the death of
the man from natural causes. Kusell who
sustained a sun stroke few years ago, had
once been an inmate of the Sheppard Asylum
and it is believed that he was on his way
there again when he was overtaken by death.
The deceased, who was unmarried, was prin-
ter by trade and a man of excellent character.
A brother of the dead man took charge of the
remains. That the body should have re-
manned where found for so long a time with
out being discovered is rather remarkable as
the spot was not secluded and there are houses
within half mile of it.
