Bones are found in Pile of Ashes

While passing through a piece OF
woods on the farm of DIR. W. w. Stew
art, two miles from Forestvile, Sunday
afternoon, J. C. Staubis, resident of
that locality, found the charred bones
of human being. The finding of hat
and knife nearby made it reasonably
certain that the bones were those of
Frank Posch |, fifty years old, who dis
appeared from his home near Forest
vile the afternoon of August "a. The
mental ends of two No. IL shells found
in the pile of ashes suggested the pos
sibility that Poschl was slain with
shotgun and his body burned on brush
pile TO hide evidences of the crime.
Sheriff Gates went to the scene as
soon as he learned of the discovery
made by Mr.. Staubis, and Justice of the
Peace w. E. Cox Monday afternoon
conducted an inquest at Forestville.
The jurors though the testimony sug-
gested that Poschl had been slain with
shotgun, but the verdict left the cause
of death open. They did decide that
the bones were those of the missing
farmer.
1t was testified at the inquest that
Poschl was subject to fits of despon-
dency.
Poschl owned farm near Forest
vile, where he resided with his sister,
Mrs. Josephine Sommers; William Som
mers her husband, and their children
August 20, the last day he was seen
alive by his sister and brother in-law,
ne said he was going to Centerville to
visit another sister, Mrs. Frank Gibbs,
| and it was not until two weeks later
that the Sommers learned he had not
| reached there.
1t was said he took no large sum of
money with him; not enough to take
him any distance and pay his travelling
expenses for so long period, and his
disappearance aroused concern among
his relatives and friends. Search made
for him failed to result in finding any
track of him.
DR.. Stewart on whose farm the bones
were found, said that about the time of
the disappearance of Poschl he was
awakened in the middle of the night by
smoke. However, he said he did not
get up, because he thought there was
little danger of it getting far because
| everything was green.
Poschl had worked for him at odd
times, according to DR.. Stewart, and at
times appeared morbid. He told his
friend that he had committed an un
pardonable sin and must atone for it in
some way, DR.. Stewart said. He had
been heard to remark that if it were not
too brutal he would build fire and jump
into it. This sin, according to Dr.
Stewart, was apparently on his mind al
all times for it was the one subject
about which he was always talking.
DR.. Stewart said that Poschl hac
been in the sanatorium for time after
the death of his wife, about three
years ago, while returning, in charge
of DR.. Sansbury of Forestville, made
an attempt to jump out the train WIN
dow, but was restrained after some eff
fort.
The place where the charred remains
were found is in a deep ravine about /
half mile from DIR. Stewards houst
in little frequented part of his farm.

It's no secret that he could get big
money if he put himself into the mar

did It's simply case of Bill and his
love for Boston and its fans. If Bill

money they store up in those banks
wouldn't have any influence upon him.
