Hoy Bonnet, young man about
81 years of age, came in last even
ing from Hagermans cow ranch on
the Long Arroyo 25 miles southeast
and reported that he had found the
dead body of a man near the old Di-
vers & Causey windmill, and he iden
titled the body as that of Lewie Wig
ley who has been working on a well
outfit for a man named Stewart on
the Hind place near this city. Bon
net who is a cowboy Immediately
reported his CHASTITY find at the head
quarters of the ranch. and came to
town to report to the officers. He
stopped at the Hinde place and re-
ported the facts to Mr.. Hinde. and
Mr.. Hinde telegraphed the deceased
mans brother and sister at Amarillo
of the strange death. 1t seems that
Wigley was in search of a load of
wood, and was driving a team of
mules, and foul play is not suspec-
ted. 1t is thought that heart failure
was the cause of death, as the man
was found dead in his bed. Wigley
was a young man about % years OF
age and was apparently healthy and
robust, and was six feet in height
Bonnet says, Il found the body near
the wagon. and there was not any
evidence of foul play. as I examined
the body and there was not any
blood in sight and the body did not
seem to be bruised. l recognized the
body of Lewia Wigley. as l knew
him personally. He had made up his

side of the bed and it seemed that
he had struggled out of same. | ex-
amined the body carefully. and not
finding any evidence of violence con
cluded that the man had come to his
death from natural causes. | put
the body on the bed and covered it
and notified the men at the ranch
headquarters of my find. After din
ner I came to town to notify the Of
ficers in regard to same. and stop
ped at the Hinde ranch. Mr.. Hinde
telegraphed Wigley's brother and
sister at Amarillo, and l brought the
message to town. l notified Deputy
Sheriff Davenport and Marshal Pi-
liant. Wigley had camped near the
old Divers & CauseY windmill and
the mules had strayed off. but
tracked them to a nearby pasture.
There was a small quantity of
wood in the wagon and a few cook
ing utensils. I did not examine the
clothes of the man to see if there
was anything of value on him.
It is supposed that young Bonnet
did not have time to make a very
careful examination after ne had
found the dead body A coroner's in
quest will be held today. and the
remains will be brought to this city.
Young Bonnet thought from the ap-
pearance of the body that the man
had been dead for about twenty-four
hours.
