cLARIyoYANT SEES VISION

Moffat, Colo, July &c, 1924.
NJ. John Howell,
Co Commissioner, Montrose, Colo,
Dear Sir:
l read in the Montrose Daily Press
where you offer reward for the find
ing of Mrs. Wood. have had some
success in locating lost people, horses
ETC., etc. l am sending you on a
separate sheet, just how / see the
whole affair. Two men who got killed
here in the Sangre de Cristo range, l
got located, so l will try the same
method on clearing up your mystery.
Directions sometimes get wrong
also distance am also not quite
sure of there being little creek rum
ming down by the house-also the long
rock just sticking up thru the surface
on the little ridge or hill the trail
crosses. These may not show. l am
certain that there Is something
buried on the right side of the trail
down below the house. A careful
this to some one who has been over
the ground and may remember seeing
some of these places Hoping you
are successful in solving the mystery
I got the following impressions re-
garding the Mrs. Wood case.
see small house, maybe Of logs
or rough lumber. I see woman leav-
ing; she is walking away from the
house. She has been quarreling and
is badly scared. I don't believe she
wears hat She looks to be 35 years
of age, slim, brown-haired, rather
good-loohng. She takes the trail or
road. Seems to go west, northwest or
southwest. Anyway the road leading
out. I believe there is little creek
on the left hand the trail on the
right side. She seems to be suffering,
like she has been beaten over the
head and shoulders. Seems to be in
very serious shape. A few moments
after she leaves and is staggering
down the road, man leaves the house
thru the open door. He is like wild
man, has club or part of chair
round in his left hand; he runs and
overtakes her, raining blows on her
head, shoulders and arms. She covers
her head with her hands and arms,
screaming and staggering down the
path. l can see her lying on the trail
200 or 300 yards from the house.
The next scene is little point OF
hill that comes down to the trail.
l believe the trail rises little to get
over it, and turns little to the
right, winding down the valley, turn
ing back to the left. This little point
of hill is seems, runs to the creek; it
is likely 300 feet, maybe 1900 feet, or
little more from the house to this
point. I get the impression that on
the right side of the trail little way
up the hill, there seems to be some
thing buried. Not over 25 or 40 feet
I would guess. If it is Mrs. Wood,
she is buried with her feet to the
cabin and head west or southwest,
parallel with the trail. There seems
to be rock just at her side and next
to the trail, a long, yellow-colored
rock, buried on upper side of this
rock, whatever it is. If this is Mrs
Wood, she is buried with her clothes
on, her hair is matted with blood and
skull crushed. I can see man wash.
ing his hands at the creek or we'll ol
spring. His shirt sleeves are rolled
up above the elbows. He is very much
excited and seems tired; he keeps
looking around like he is expecting
someone to see him or run upon him
Hoping this description will lead tt
finding the body. or whatever may be
cached at this point, am
Very truly,
J. F. TOOKER,
