NO TRACE YET
OF dead MAN.
Chauffeur Says He Saw
Fellow Helpless on
Turnpike
DEPUTY CORONER
ON USELESS SEARCH

Whether a man died on the Phila-
delphia Turnpike above Holly Oak
last night or whether a man was in
toxicated and joke played in con-
sequence, is yet to be determined by
the authorities Thomas Fagan, a
driver for the Wilmington Automo-
bile Company, reported, upon his re-
turn from a trip up the pike last
evening, that a man was lying on the
ground near Holly Oak and several
men were standing about the body.
Pagan says that he was requested by
the men to notify the coroner upon
his arrival in the city. This he did.
The chauffeur first reported the case
to Patrolman Jolly and later TO
Deputy Coroner Nichols. When the
latter made an investigation he fail
ed to find the corpse.
Neither could he locate anyone who
knew anything about a supposed dead
man having been seen in that Vi
cinity. He searched both sides of the
road from Shellpot Park to a point
almost at the State line, but could
find no one who appeared to be dead
or anyone who had seen dead
body lying in the road Nobody in
the vicinity knew anything about such
a case.
Fagan declares that he saw a man
lying in the road and that the men
around him said that he was cold in
death and asked him to notify the
coroner. Pagan did not leave his cal
to examine the body as to whether
the man had any marks of violence
on him. He says he believed the
story the men told him and had nc
idea that they we're putting up z
joke on him.
The police department is said tC
ave made an investigation anC
found nothing of the man nor any
one who knew anything about tn,
case.

Oil On Sweet Lick

The Estill Tribune says: IAN oil well
was drilled in Wednesday afternoon on
the Rawlins farm on Sweet Lick by Mr..
Gibson. Oil in what is thought to be
paying quantities was found at 3 depth
of 225 feet. The location OF this well
is about four miles from several pro-
ducers in the neighborhood of Pitts,
showing the extent of paying territory
considerably larger that was generally
supposed"
Judging from the name, "Sweet
Lick" we presume this well produces
sweet oil.
