Gruesome Find in Trapper's Cabin.

Nelson Grill Of Perham went on a
fishing trip to Big Goddard stream in
Goddard Plantation last week and
while there made gruesome discov-
cry. He visited the old cabin for
about IS years occupied by Joseph Du-
bay, who lived a hermits life, and there
found dead body, which proved to be
that Of Dubay, in a bunk and covered
with vermin and flies. Ending his
fishing trip right there Grill went back
home and reported the case. Coroner
F. A. Smith of Caribou was notified
and with doctor and selectman Of
Perham the nearest incorporated
town, went to the camp and viewed the
remains. 1t was decided that the man
had died of starvation. The house
was absolutely empty SO far as food
was concerned and part of the wood
work had been used for fuel. The old
man, who was in poor health when he
last appeared at the store in Perham
where he traded, spent his last 81 for
tobacco and a little food. He had
evidently been unable to make his way
out again and persisted. Rumor said
that he had been disappointed in love,
his sweetheart marrying another man
on the very day set for her marriage to
him. He then went to the woods,
where he had hunted and trapped Just
enough to secure the bare necessities
of life. His home was said have been

SLASHED BY MAN
WHILE ASSISTING
= A YOUNG WOMAN

The Journal is Informed by Mr..
Brown, who is we'll known to many in
this city, that the following from the
Lynn. Mass. Item is q correct version
Of the affair therein mentioned and
which has been terribly distorted and
mangled in some of the papers:
For giving protection to a young
lady in Chelsea, Monday evening.
Fred p. Brown of sic Essex street,
was slashed twice about the body
by an unknown man of foreign ma
tionalty. The wounds were in
flicted about the left shoulder and
on the side just below the ribs. He
was removed in the police ambu-
lance to Frost hospital. where eight
stitches were necessitated to close
the cuts, after which Mr.. Brown re-
turned to his home in this city.
Brown had been visiting a cousin
in the Back Bay section of Boston.
On returning TO Lynn, he con-

boarded the car and sat in the seat
with him.
From the time Miss Gelder sat by
his side until Chelsea square was
reached Brown noticed that she was
her nervousness during the ride, for
she was aware that the mysterious for
eigner was following her. When the
car arrived in Chelesa square she
broke into conversation with Brown
and pleaded with him to escort her
home, informing him that the man was
trailing her.
Mr.. Brown consented to see her
home and alighted from the car. only
to observe that the stranger was also
intent on carrying out his plans. The
couple walked across Chelsea square
and were about to turn into Cross
street, when the stranger accosted
them, calling upon Brown to explain
what his business was with the young
woman.
The unknown was informed by
Brown that he was accompanying the
young lady to her home. Only half a
dozen words followed. when Brown
saw his accoster was Infatuated and
noticed him draw a razor from his
pocket. At the moment the stranger
dashed toward Brown, who attempted
to dodge his assailaIt. the razor cut
through Browns coat and inflicted two
deep wounds before the assailant was
scared off by a crowd who gathered
when the young woman screamed.
Browns assailant made off through
a dark street, but an investigation was

the slasher is. Brown returned to his
home unassisted from the hospital,
and this morning complained of his in

serious consequences are anticipated.
