Up until a few weeks ago Gerhardt

he was assigned to the bathing

Skeletons Of Forty Men
Suggest Tragic Questions

Further search of the spot on the
Texas coast where were found twen-
ty-five skeletons of human beings
early in August revealed fifteen
more skeletons, making total of
forty men who were the victims of
some tragedy Of which the people of
the present day have no knowledge.
No proof has come to light in sub
sanitation of the theory that the
skeletons belonged to members of
Jean Lafitte's private crew. That
they belonged to some part Of the
civilized world, however, is evident
from the rust incrusted relics found
close by. These include a brass in
cense burner, gold rings and brace
let's, and an unidentified iron OBJ
ject which bore the words "Cad1z,
SPAIN" upon it's surface. The fact
that close at hand were found many
Indian arrowheads leads to the con-
clusion that the men who lost their
lives may have belonged to a crew
of "a shipwrecked vessel and were
killed by redmen.

public official of Corpus Christi, Mr..
Briscoe said:
