Body of Missing szan Found.

HUMBOLDT, Neb. May n-(special)-
Word was received in this city
to the effect that farmer liv-
ing a few miles east of Dawson has
discovered the corpse of an unknown man
lying in a pile of driftwood along the
banks of the Nemaha. The body was
badly decomposed and the almost unbear.
able stencil is what directed the attention
of the farmer toward the place where the
body lay, adjoining the field in which he
was plowing. Investigation revealed that
the body was probably that OF Jesse Roate,
who disappeared from the home of his
sister, Mrs. Steve Harman, late In Feb.
ruary, and was at the time thought to
have fallen In the river and washed under
| the ice. AS was recounted in these dis.
patches at the time the young man, who
had Just come into the house from herd.
ing cattle took pail and started to the
Nemaha to get some water, the custom
being to dip 1t up from a foot bridge.
Tracks in the snow Indicated that he ar
rived at the bridge all right but no trace
could be found, except his cap which was
lodged against the ice several feet below
About two weeks after his disappearance
It was announced that the supposed victim
had been seen in the eastern part of the
county, near the Missouri river and of
course the search was abandoned his
family and friends thinking that for some
reason he had chosen to seek his fortune
elsewhere. Later events go TO show that
the report of his being seen was probably
erroneous, for while the features OF the
man found were unrecognizable, the cloth
ing resembled that of Roate, and as the
place where he disappeared is less than
two miles above the spot where the body
was found no one doubts but that the first
| ~. fap ond
young man likely slipped and fell into the
| stream when he stopped to dip up the
water The coroner was summoned from
Falls City and his verdict was in ac-
cordance with the above statement of the
