INDIAN BOY DR0W NED
Body Found in Rapid Greek
Sunday.

Albert Slowly. an Indian, 20 years
old was found dead in the creek near
eighth street bridge about nine clock
last Sunday night.
The young man was q student at
the Indian School about three years
ago and he with his parents came to
Rapid City intending to remain
through stock meeting.
William Gaylow, on his way home
to North Rapid, discovered the body
and after notifying the authorities,
broke the sad news to the young
mans parents.
After learning that Slowly was a
victim of epilepsy, the coroners jury
rendered q verdict of death from an
unknown cause.
A story which gained circulation
that he had thirty-tWo dollars, on his
person which was missing is absolute
ly unfounded as he is known to have
had but four dollars, 4 portion OF
which was found in his pockets. the
balance being readily accounted for by
his parents.
