I've mystery in the murder is it's
environment. The wooded bluff
wf1Se Fhompson's body was found
is lonely spot, hard of access. why
he should have gone there, or for
wlht purpose, is a puzzle. The hill
sif is steep and Overgrown with un-
ddbrush. There is no road at its
bHe. The only easy way to get there
WPuld be by passing through the
clmetery. Why Thompson went
olere, or whether he was persuaded
to go there to keep an appointment
Il some secret nature, are things the
HE officials are trying to find out.
SO far as can be learned tonight,
there was no sane reason for his
going to the place. That he might
have been murdered at some other
place and his body carried into the
woods, is a theory now advanced.
The discovery of the body is to-
night the sole theme of talk in the
city. No crime in a score of years
has been surrounded with such a
blanket of mystery. The officials
win this morning go over all the
woods and adjacent territory in hope
of finding some clue which may lead
to a solution Of the crime.
