BODY OF AGED MAN is
FOUND NEAR PEORIA

CHANDLER, Aug. l9-Three days
after he had hung himself. the body
OF an old man was found dangling at
the end of rope. thrown over a raj
ter in an unused stable in Peoria early
Wednesday morning. A call was
sent to the sheriff's office here by a
Peoria storekeeper and Deputy Sher-
If Gilbert Blanco. with Justice Mckee
left az once to investigate the case.
According to the accounts OF the Of
ficers the body must have been hang
ing for at least three days.
The stable. which belongs to W. J.
Osborn, was not used for any purpose
which accounts for the interval be-
tween the suicide and the finding Of
the body Officers say that the man
was apparently 60 or 65 years old,
with white hair. They could not say
anything definitely regarding his ma.
tionality as the body was in decom.
posed condition when found.
There were no means of indentifica-
ton found on the body, but il was
thought that the dead man might
have been an. old Mexican. who had
been noticed lettering around Peoria,
but who had not been during the
past several days Justice Mckee
selected coroner's jury and held an
inquest at the scene OF the suicide.
A verdict OF self inflicted death was
returned. The body will be buried
by the county.
