Ohio, On May 81
Autopsy Showed That Fisther
Died Of HcmOrrhages
Brother Comes TO The City
To Claim The Body

Complete identification of the man
found dead in the school yard south
OF the city on the Columbus road Sat.
urday morning, was established Sun.
day afternoon by Sheriff Woolison.
The body of the man was that of e.
Fisther, who escaped from the Massil.
lon hospital for the insane on May 81
of this year.
The autopsy conducted by Coroner
v. L. Fisher on Sunday morning dis.
closed the fact that the mans death
was due to hemorrhages Of the lungs
and other complications which may
have been brought on by exposure.
A brother OF the dead man is expect.
ed in the city from West Brookfield,
Ohio. TO claim the body.
Not long after the body Of the man
had been found on Saturday, Sheriff
Woolison was in communication with
the state hospital, Columbus, the To-
ledo hospital and the Newburgh hos.
pital but the information was given
out that no one by that description
had escaped from any Of the above
institutions. On Sunday Sheriff
Woolison called the Massillon hos.

to the description Of Fisther had es.

er's death In Mt. Vernon and would
come here to claim the body.
1t Is the belief that Fisther walked
the entire distance from Massillon to
Mt. Vernon. His clothing and his
shoes showed signs of exposure to
stormy weather and the autopsy con.
Quoted by Coroner Fisher showed
that exposure, to certain extent,
brought on his condition. The autop.
sy showed that the immediate cause
OF his death was hemmorrhage of the
lung one lung being completely filed
with blood. The coroner believes that
the hemorrhages were brought on
by some kind of convulsion which
the man suffered before his death.
The body is still at the Chappelear
morgue awaiting the arrival of the
brother.
A brother of the deceased arrived
In Mt. Vernon at 1895 Monday after.
noon and at once Identified the re.
mains at the Chappelear morgue. The
man stated that his brother was a
trusty at thes Massillon hospital and
wandered away from the institution
and that relatives had been searching
for him all over the north part OF the
state. They had no idea that he had
travelled this far west.
Arrangements were made whereby
the brother will accompany the re-
mains to Massillon Monday evenine

made in Massillon.
