0MMULGEE MAN
IS FOUND DEAD
after z WEEKS
Chief of Police Believes
Natural Causes After
Examination of Part
ly Decomposed Body.
ELDRED LEFT MOTHER
IN PENNSYLVANIA
Became III and Could Not
Summons Aid is Theory
of Police Official.

OKMULGEE.-That Russell Edred,
aged q years, son of Mrs. f. b. Eldred,
wealthy real estate owner, died from
natural causes, was the opinion ex.
pressed today by Chief of Police Dick
Farr.
Eldreds remains, badly decomposed,
were found in his mothers home yes
terday by Luther Finch, real estate
dealer, who had charge Of the resi-
dence during the absence Of Mrs. FL
dred and her son, who left Okmulgee
Pennsylvania. DR.. F. s. Watson will
hold a post.mortem examination Of FL
dred's body this afternoon and will re.
port his findings to Justice Of the Peace
C. j. Shields. Whether an inquest will
be held depends upon the result Of the
post.mortem examination.
Russell Eldred left his grandfathers
home in Pennsylvania. where he and
his mother had been visiting, on March
2 to return to Okmulgee.
Chief Of Police Dick Farr today sta
ted he believed Eldred was i'll when
he arrived here and went to his moth
er's residence, where his condition be-
came more critical.
II believe Eldred became delirious
and wandered about the house turning
over furniture, but unable, because Of
his delirium, to summon help" Chief
Farr said today THE water, electric
light, gas and telephone lines had been
disconnected"
No weapons of any kind and no
blood stains were found anywhere in
the house, Chief Farr said.
None of Eldred's many friends in
Okmulgee, so far as has been learned,
saw him after his first return to Ok
mulgee, which Chief Farr said sup
ported his theory that Eldred was Ill
when he arrived and went directly from
the train to the Eldred house, where
he died. The body. when found yes
terday. indicated he had died two or
possibly three weeks ago. Mrs. Elded,
In a letter to Mr.. Finch. her real es'
tate agent. received Saturday, stated
she had received no reply to letters
written to her son, and that she was
returning to Okmulgee. Finch was In
structed in the letter not 10 rent the
house, but to prepare 1t for her re-
turning to Okmulgee. The house
had been vacant while Mrs. Eldred and
her son were in the East. Mr.. Finch
visited the house month ago In com
pany with prospective tenant, who
decided not TO rent II. AS result OF
the letter OF Mrs. Eldred received Sat
urday, Mr.. Finch visited the house yes
terday and discovered the young mans
body.
Police today stated so far as they
knew. Eldred was man OF good habits
and exemplary character.
His father. who died several years
ago. was a pioneer oil man in the Ok
mulgee district.
