CORPSE ROBBED
OF PISTOL

Mountain Hill, Na-It has just been
discovered that the grave OF ]. NJ. Milan,
who died here recently, has been opened
and the watch and pistol OF the deceased
stolen. By the request OF the dead man,
these articles had been buried with him,
and the pistol especially was known to
DC of unusual value, and this it is sup
posed, was the induccmcnt OF the shame
iul dissertation.
The reason for the peculiar request OF
the deceased that his pistol be buried with
him is not positively known, MIR. Milan
was sharpshooter in the Civil War, and
killed many men, being accounted one of
the finest marksmen in the army. His
was fighting blood. Since the war it is
said that four men have persisted in com
bat with him. Those who knew him best
say that he had something Of the Indians !
feeling about being buried with his !
weapon-a superstition that he might |
need it in that other land to which he had
sent so many. 10 Others, it seemed that |
1t was simply affection for the weapon
which had stood by, him so faithfully in !
times OF danger, for this man was no muir |
derer, and all his killing was in fair com
bat or self-defensc. Whatever the mo-
tive, the wishes Of the dead man were re-
spectcd; until the cupidity Of some ghoul
ish thief took from the poor lifeless clay |
its strange bed-iellow for the last long
sleep.
1t is but another proof Of the universal
law Of compensation that this man by
whom the blood Of many had been shed
has given TO the world, in seeming recon-
pense, that which has saved many human
lives and relieved human suffering. For
,forty-six years he was known for his
ability TO cure blood troubles OF the most
virulcnt description, and before his death
he revealed the secret OF INCORPORATION,
which is now being manutatt used under
the name OF MlLAM,it honor OF its
originator. tv.,s
