BODY Of DEAD MAN
FOUND ON PRAIRIE
So. OF CO. SHOP
DISH WASHER TAKEN ILL, LIES
DOWN, AFTER REMOVING HIS
SHOES, AND DIES DURING NIGHT
-WoRkMEN DISCOVER CORPSE
EARLY THIS MORNING.

Lying face down on the prairie al
the extreme western end of Huron
street, West Ottawa, the dead body
of man who later was identified as
Albert Dudis. Sc, dish washer, was
found this morning at $50 o'clock by
James Nagle and Jerry Latina on
their way to work at the Ottawa Sill
ca plant.
There were no marks of violence
on the body, the indications being
that Dudis, becoming i'll, lay down on
the prairie, which is just north of
the C., o. 4 p. shops, and there died
without help reaching him.
People living near the scene of
Dudis' death heard no outcries during
the night to indicate someone was in
distress. 1t Is believed that the man
was stricken suddenly before he
could call for help. He apparently
had taken off his shoes to get as
much comfort as possible. They were
found laying beside the body when
Nangle and Latina made their start
ling find early this morning. None
of the other clothing. however had
been doffed as the remains were full
ly dressed, coat. vest, trousers. socks.
shirt and underwear. The mans hat
lay nearby.
The supposition is that after Du-
dis spread out on the grounds he
became violently i'll and in pain turn
ed over on his, face His features
were dirt bespattered.
Faced by prospects of being unable
to identify the body the police start
ed out on hunt for someone who
could tell whose remains they were.
The man wore black fedora hat and
heavily soled black shoes. There was
nothing in the pockets which would
throw any light on his identity. In
the trousers were two bars of laun-
dry soap. two packages of cigarettes.
book of street car tickets. a pack
age of tobacco and s116 in money.
There were no letters nor cards.
When word spread around town
that an unknown man had been found
dead, Mrs. Mary CRATER, an employe
of the College inn restaurant. went
to the Gladfelter morgue and readily
identified Dudis. whom she said was
employed with her at the restaurant
The man roomed with Mrs. CRATER,
whose home is in the Federal Plate
district
The failure of Dudis to appear at
his work last night and her inability
to learn where he went after leaving
home last night, caused Mrs. Craffers
suspicious to become aroused when
she heard of the unknown's body be-
ing in the morgue.
After viewing the corpse she de-
clared it to be that of the missing
roomer.
Dudis, she said. came to Ottawa
about three months ago. He is a
native of Poland, and. as far as she
knows, has not relatives living in
America.
