they having chewed the flesh off
one arm and part of one side.
Mr.. Horn was engaged in haul.
ing wood when he discovered the
body, lying face down. 1t was
difficult to identify the party on
this account, but it is supposed
he was a white man and a tramp.
A man similar in every respect

of the supposition. 1t is said ev-
idence was found that he had

gone to sleep and his clothing
caught on fire, as a closer eXcm-

the body had been chared. The
coroner was summoned and the

ing by the conditions of the body,
it is the coroner's opinion that
the man committed suicide by
saturating his clothing with coal
oil and setting it on fire, as it is
known he purchase a pint of
coal oil in HoIIansburg on Christ
