Leased tle Farm.
The police have evolved numerous
theories and say that the two men
might have rented the farm simply to
give them free aceess to dispose of
the corpse.
Burgess Hall of Aliquippa conducted
the renting negotiations with Petrakis
and Spindilis, and from them received
a deposit This gave the two men free
access to the farm. Since they rented
the farm they have not been seen.
1t is known that wagon or bug
gy was driven to the farm, tracks
having been left in the soft earth An
effort was made to conceal the tracks
by driving over the sod instead of on
the road.
DR.. w. D. Engle. who made an
autopsy yesterday, believes the victim
was about 42 years old. The two men
who rented the farm are described as
being about 35 years Of age.
But little credence is placed in the
theory that the foreigner who COM

the farmer. who said he never heard
