T. o. SVENDSEN
FOUND DEAD

T. o. Svendsen, aged about 65
years, who lived just east of
town on Olalla slough was found
dead at his home Tuesday after
noon by Gunder Olson. Mr..
Svendsen was a bachelor and
lived on his little farm all alone.
He was not feeling well last
week - d Sunday Mr.. Olson was
over to see how he was getting
along, and he said he was feeling
better, that he bad been to the
drug store and had gotten some
medicine and that it had helped
him, but that he didn't have any
money to pay for the medicine.
Not having seen Svendsen
around, Mr.. Olson went again
Tuesday afternoon to see him.
He found the door locked and no
one answered his knock. Upon
looking in the window he saw
Svendsen lying on the floor.
Gunder at once came to town
and notified Sheriff Geer, who,
with DIR. Burgess, d. B. Stuart
and F. N. Hayden at once left
for the Svendsen farm. The
door was forced open and Svend-
sen was found upon his knees
with his face on the floor, being
wedged in between the wash
stand and the wall which kept
him in this upright position. He
was fully dressed with the ex-
ception of his shoes and sox- II
is thought that he arose Monday
morning and went to wash when
he had a hemorrhage Of the
brain and fell over dead.
A twenty dollar gold piece wa.
found upon the body and
thousand dollars in gold wa.
found in a belt in Svendsen's
trunk. 1t is said that he wa!
worth perhaps $4,000
Deceased leaves a brother who
lives near Boring, Oregon, and q
sister at Clearwater, South Da'
kOta.
