liam Kupfcrer OF Brandon. who disap-
reaied Sunday, May 1s was found about
three O'Clock yesterday afternoon In
OTTER creek near the bridge south Of
here by a searching party from Bran
don. The body was examined by three
physicians and as no injuries OF any
Kind We're found II was decided that the
man died by accidental drowning. it be-
ing practically certain that he fell
through the railroad bridge while at
tempting to cross.
In the pockets was 50 in bills and some
small change. The mans watch had
stopped at 5;l7 o'clock which would indi-
or te that he fell from the bridge at that
time.
A Swede living at Proctor was found
yesterday who said he left Kupferer at
point a little this side OF the bridge
shortly before FIVE o'clock Sunday after
noon and that the man was badly intoxi-
ticn the Swede said that he watched
l[upferer until he was apparently over
the bridge. and then started to go home.
After walking few steps he again
| turned to look at the man and he had
d!ea ppeared. The Swede said he re-
traced his steps. going over the bridge,
but as he saw nothing Of kupferer he
thought that he had probably left the
track at one side or the other and made
no further search for him.
