HAMMOND'S BODY
SHIPPED EAST

Undertaken c. P. Jaeger returned
this morning from Starbuck where he
disinterred the remains of Engineer
c. P. Hammond and prepared them for
shipment to the family home in Min
neapolis,
Mr.. Jaeger states the Identification
was most complete on account OF the
dental work on the teeth and the
clothing worn by the unfortunate
young man at the time of his drown
ing.
Hammond was drowned while at
tempting to cross the Clearwater river
in a small boat on March 1, and for
several weeks the river was patrolled
between Lewiston and Riparia.

for some time and the recent rise Ia
the river again carried it into the cur
rent. When discovered at Lyons ferry
the remains were in midstream and
| were brought ashore by the wife o.
the ferryman.

these people had been visited and

Charges were also made that the

splendid condition.
/ "The orchards have been wen

"On the other hand the complain-
