In the rear of the second floor, and to
have fallen from the window to the
yard below. distance of about fifteen
feet There are three telephone wires
running along the buihing just be-
low the window. These wires Were
indented. giving strong belief to De-
tectives Bryant and Wiley that the man
had fallen from the window.
1t was thought by some that posi-
bly, Garris' had been assaulted and
placed in the position in which he was
found. But Peter Matez. cook in IA
restaurant at No. SOC East Broad
Street, adjoining the Massie building,
heard a dull thud as he was attending
to his duties. and rushed to the back
door. There he found Garris uncon-
scious, with blood flowing from his
head.
The ambulance was called and the
man was taken TO Virginia Hospital
Papers on his person indicated that his
name is Garris. and that he is employ
ed in the intuition plant at the Loco

Detectives Bryant and Wiley learned
that he had small balance coming
to him at the Locomotive Works. but
could get no data as to where he came
from or where he lived.
