Abba, Dec. Sword was received
here Thursday by persons who live
near tower No. BOT on the Burlington
route to the effect that supposed
murder was committed Wednesday
near that place. A party Of business
men, including County Attorney G. E.
Miller, Sheriff Cal Guthrie, Chief of
Police Mac Coon and number of
others FASTENED to the scene and
found an old coat there, also some
blood, and 1t looked very much as
though something had been thrown
down the shaft Of an old mine there
which has not been used for some
time. There are about 100 feet Of
waite in the shaft and the party is
handicapped by that TACT They came
back to Abba about three o'clock al
took some heavy rope and graphing
hook back with them. They are still
on the scene and nothing further has
developed.
