baugh was called and made an inves-
tigation Of the matter, but everything
tended to show that the rancher had
died from natural causes. Further
examination showed cause Of death
to have been heart trouble. In his
pockets was found the sum Of $l5.7s.
Meek had evidently been dead for
number of days. He was 81 years of
age, unmarried, and while of a retir-
ing and unusual disposition, was well
thought of by his neighbors. His
