OF CORPSE
NOT SOLVED
Woman Whose Body It
Was Thought To Be
Is Alive
POST MORTEM
REVEALS NOTHING
GENERAl PETAlN.

Practically convinced that the
woman whose half-clad body was
found frozen in Baby creek, Sun
day, was slain, Coroner Burgess and
the police are working on the the.
ory that she was killed in some
nearby city, brought to the DESC
late spot at the western outskirts
of the city and thrown there.
The identification of the woman
furnished by Mrs. T. ]. Kegley, Jr,
of No. 29S Military-ave., Tuesday
afternoon. was shattered, late in
the evening. Mrs. Keglcy declared
the body was that of Mrs. Sim J.
Lewis, of johannesburg, Mich, with
whom she was well acquainted. II
was discovered later that Mrs.
Lewis is alive in her home.
What puzzles the authorities most
Is the cause of death. A postmor-
tenn examination, Tuesday after
noon, revealed no apparent cause
of her demise.
In the meantime every effort is
being made to establish her iden-
tity, and there are many visitors
to the morgue.
