Body Of Aged Man
Found Dead in Black
Hills is Identified

DEADwooD, 8. D., Feb. 1.--(special)
Through the Identification by his son,
Clyde Of Arpan. Butte county, the mys-
terry surrounding the disappearance last
November Of George A. Giddings, an aged
man from Oklahoma, who left his bag
gage In the local Burlington depot and
then dropped out Of sight. has been
cleared. The body Of man, supposed TO
DO Melvin Evans OF Eureka Kan, and
identified last November by friends Of
that man. Is now claimed to be the elder
Giddings.
Two months ago an aged man cut -
throat on the road near Lead. He was
then identified as Evans, a fugitive from
Kansas Officers. At the same time CID
siings dropped out Of sight. He had been
visiting his son at Arpan ana announced
his intention when leaving there of going
TO Oregon. where he had land Now his
son has found that he quietly returned
TO Belle Fourche. made over deed OF his
oregon property TO daughter in Texas
and mailed Il to her, sent her some money
and then came to Lead, where he conn
mitted suicide.
The body Of the supposed Evans was
publicly viewed and inferred in the pot
ter's field, because It was not claimed.
When the younger Giddines failed to
trace his father and learned from his
sister IN Texas that his father had re-
turned to Belle Fourch. and made out
the deed. he went to Lead and had the
body dislnterred. He positively identified
the body as that OF his father by scar
and also q gold watch with his mothers
initials. which young Giddinss said she
had given the father forty-two years ago.
George II. ciddinss Is believed to have
been mentally unbalanced. and his son
declares that he had shown signs OF
dependency. He was at one time q
practicing attorney In Iowa.
Local officials are probing the case
still further to find if it was possible
that Giddings met with foul play instead
OF committing suicide.
