Last Sunday afternoon the body
of man was found near the river
bridge east Of Rocky Ford. Beside
the body was .4i-caliber Colts
pistol. with one empty shell. A hole
in the forehead indicated suicide.
The shot seems to have blown oil
almost the top of the head. The
mans hat was lying beside him with
bullet hole through it. Nothing
was found in the pockets To aid in
Identification and the face was in
such condition from the effects Of
the shot and long exposure as not to
be recognized.
Later the remains were identified
a. those Of Jacob Heckel. well known
AS clerk Of the Hotel Fl Captain foi

worked there for the last -four
months
He was last seen in Rocky Ford
about a month ago and was supposed
To have gone to another city To visit
relatives. The growth Of willows
