 He said that he believed Powell fired two shots at his wife, one penetrating the heart, and the oth- CT a mercy shot, going in under the chin and coming out the top of the head. The mercy shot, he said, probably was fired when she had tilted her head back after the first sho.
 Powell then took the gun and placed the muzzle in his mouth.
 Jack Trompen, the Alaskan, who was in the party that discovered the camp at Stocking point, on Mona creek, and who led the posse that went from Alder yesterday fer the bodies, told the coroner that he is satisfied no third party was involved.
