Trenton Marshal Hints at Dis
posal Of Body to Avoid a
Damage Suit

Fred KNAPP, Of Trenton, made dis.
covery which threatens to 90 down in
history as an unsolved mystery when
he pulled the tar-incased body OF a
man from the Detroit river near
Trenton at 4 o'clock Monday after
noon.
From head to foot the body was In
cased In tar, the mans clothing was
stiff with the stun and his hair was
matted with 1t. 1t was evident that
the man had been immersed In tar
before failing or being thrown into the
river .
Knapp was working in his boat
house when he saw q curious black
object floating by. He reached for 1t
and dragged II from the river. The
tar made 1t almost impossible for him
to realize the nature Of his find for
some time. but he finally notified Mar.
shall Labo, of Trenton. who took
charge of the body. There was moth
ing about the dead man which might
furnish q means of Identification, a
strip of seven-for-a-quarter tickets, a
cheap silver watch and rosary being
all the pockets contained. The man
was evidently Of foreign birth. He
was of medium height smooth shaven
and weighed from 140 to $50 pounds.
Marshall Labo expressed himself as
believing that the man had fallen
into q vat Of tar In some factory
along the river and that his body had
been thrown into the rivcer to avoid a
damage suit.
