CHASTITY FIND
IS MADE
BODY OF MAN BELIEVED 10
HAVE BEEN MURDERED Il
FOUND IN CREAICE-HAS BIL-
LET HOLE THROUGH SKULL.

Maitland Dunne, a prospectOr from
The northeastern part OF the county
yesterday informed District Attorney
Reevevs that the body of man with
n bullet hole through his skull had
been found by members OF Dunne's
family
According 10 Mr. Dunne's report
the CHASTITY discovery was made the
first part OF his week. He came to
the city as early as he could arrange
10 do so, To bring report of rhe dis
coyery TO the officials.
When found the body was in a
ereyice. Rocks had either fallen
upon it from the hillside or had
been rolled there. The latter Is con-
sidered the more probable, as the
mans body WAS practically covered
and there was no evidence OF slip
from the hillside. on which loose rock
is scarce.
Indications are that the man has
been dead for SOME months. It is
thought that he WAS killed, either for
his outfit or in a quarrel with some
one with whom he was prospecting
and that the murderer then threw
the body in the erevice and added
further TO its concealment by throw
ing the rocks upon n.
ar. Dunno made no examination
of the body TO ascertain clues TO its
identity and was unable to give a
practical description. District At
torney Reeves said last night that
he had communicated with the sher-
in Office and that immediate steps
would he taken toward a thorough
investigation hy Sheriff Butler.
