The dead, body of Robin j. Cooper

Word nardoned by Governor Patter-
SON The killing of Cooper is q mys-
terry. 1t appears that the deed must
have been done on Thursday night. 1t
Is known that on Thursday he drew
$4,000 in cash from the bank. Exam
inats0n of the body showed that there
was no water in the lungs and
crushed skull disclosed the real cause
Of death. Blood marks on 4 bridge
over the creek and other evidences OF
a violent struggle seemed TO indicate
that the man had been dragged into
the creek after being done to death.
The absence of Mrs. Cooper on visit
to her father accounts for the delay IN
discovering Cooper's absence from
home. There was no evidence of rob-
berry in the house: but Cooper's empty
pocketbook was found in the rear of
his automobile which stood near the
creek. There are different theories
about the affair, some of them holding
that $4,000 was the motive of the
murder and others inclinins TO the
view that the mans death is the re-
suit of the Cooper-Carmack feud.
