FINDS MANS BODY IN WELL
Foul Crime Supposed TO Have
Been Committed by
Groton Farm Hand.

A foul murder was brought TO light
Sunday about o when the body OF
Dewitt Beilby, with two bullet holes in
his head, was found in the well at the
farm of Eli McFarlane, a few miles
north of Groton.
William Ziegier is suspected Of the
murder and the authorities are on his
trail. The two men had been working
for McFarlane this spring and were
in Groton Friday. Zeigler hired a rig
and they drove to the home of Chef
Luce, north of town, arriving there
about 8 p. m. They left about IL o'clock
telling conflicting stories as 70 where
they were going. When McFarlane
arose Saturday morning he found Zeig-
Ter asleep on the couch, the latter stat
ing hat he came in about 4 a. IN.
Zeigler returned the rig Saturday
forenoon, and blood was found. on the
cushions, which were of light cloth.
Zeigler's explanation Of its presence
there was that he had had the nose
bleed.
Ii is thought that the murdered man
had about 500, as he remarked to Mr..
McFarlane a day or two before. when
he quit work and was paid off: THAT
makes me just two hundred dollars"
No money was found on the body.
Little is known of either principal
TO the tragedy. They have beer work
ing in this vicinity for several months.
Both are supposed TO be from Michi-
gan. The murdered mar was about
40 and is believed to have a family in
the east, Zeigler is about 25 and about
five feet ten inches i'll height. smooth
face, light hair, inclined toward sandy,
and weighs about $50 pounds. He had
been idle for a few days on of
injury TO his foot.
