week and had the body of his
eighteen months-old child exhum-
ed and removed to Lakin, Kansas,
where another child is buried. The
child was buried here twenty
three years ago, but notwithstand-
ing this length of time, the body
was in remarkable state of
preservation, even the clothing re-
tanning a natural color. There
was a little tangle0 between Mr..
O'Conner and the city with regard
TO the lot. The records here did
not show his title and the lot
had been sold to Mrs. Rudolph.
The city paid him $45 and he
relinquished his claim. Barney
used to be one of the oldtimers
here and he still looks and talks
natural to his old Medicine Lodge
friends.
