Arnold Hudson Dies Horrible
Death.

Arnold Hudson, of near Selbyville,
known as a hermit, a parsonage of
mystery and seclusion. died horrible
death last week. his body being found
Friday by party Of gunners, torn and
mutilated by buzzards. There were no
signs of foul play and it is believed he
froze TO death.
Rumor has it that years ago Hudson,
who was hustling young business
man, was disappointed in love affair
and disappeared. Long afterward he
was found in the depths of the Cypress
Swamp, one Of the most tangled and
desolate places on the Peninsula, where
he had built himself a cabin. AS long
as most people can remember, he has
been living there. never mingling with
outsiders except when he brought
huckleberries to town or to buy the few
provisions that he needed.
In his old cabin. with 10 window panes
and with open doors, he lived his miser-
able existence, dirty and forlorn and
having nothing whatever to do with
any one. No one has ever stepped in
his cabin and even when sick he would
refuse the service of a doctor. Citizens
gave the body burial.
