Bottineau
County an
NJ urd cred
Body Found in Field Eight
Miles From Upham-Slay-
ing Brutal and Battling

Towner, N. D., Sept. 2l.-
(AP)-Joseph Loiselle, %,
who resided in the southern
part of Bottineau county, and
whose body was found in a
plOwed field eight miles west
of Upham, with the throat
cut, was murdered by an un-
known assailant, a coroner's
jury which investigated the
case yesterday reported in its
verdict.
The staying, one of the
] most brutal and battling in
!, criminal annals in McHenry
county, will be difficult to
solve, in the belief of Sheriff
Carl Hanson of this city, who
reports that thus far his in
vestigation has failed to de-
velop any tangible clues as to
the identity of the person or
persons who may have mur-
dered the young farmer.
Footprints on a highway
and on the plowed field where
the body was found indicated
that Loiselle had been pur-
sued by another man for q
distance Of a little more than
one mile, before being over
taken and slain.
J Knife Clenched in Hand
A pocket knife was found
clenched in one of Loiselle's :
hands, but the jurors were
/ inclined to believe that this
instrument either belonged tc
the young man and had beer
taken out of his pocket for self de-
fcnsc. or had been placed in the
youths hand by his assailant after
he had been struck down.
The wound which caused Loiselle'.
death was about two inches long and
two inches deep, under the right ear
The body, when found, was lying fac.
downward on plOwcd field, few
rods from the farm home of Pau
Roscnau, about 40 miles northwest Ol
Towncr.
Inquest Held
! Discovery of the body was made
early yesterday by Mr.. Rosenau who
had seen it on the previous day, but
thought that it was bunch Of rags
which dogs had dragged onto th.
field. After he investigated, and saw
that it was the body Of a man, he i'm.
mediately notified Sheriff Hanson
and arrangements were made for {
coroner's inquest, which was held u,
Rosenau's farm.
Testimony which was heard by the
jurors was to the effect that L0iselle
who resided with his parents in ths
southern part of BOttineau county
was last seen in Upham on Saturday
night. Reports that two or three
on that evening are being investigat
ed by Sheriff Hanson. L0isclle haC
driven to Upham in truck, and thii
machine was found alongside thu
highway little more than a mile
from where the body was discovered
H Engage in Combat
Tracks around the truck and ON the
highway led the sheriff to believe
that Loiselle had engaged his assail.
ant or assailants in combat and ther
| fled, being pursued by one man
There was blood on the barbed wire
fence where Loiselle had crawled
!, through to the plowed field and there
was also blood on the knife which he
was holding in his hand.
i Sheriff Hanson has not advanced
any idea as to what motive for the
staying Of Loiselle might have been.
j Henry Phau, G. Paulson and Pau
4 R0senau were the members Of thu
coroner's jury which investigated the
case, and reported that it was their
belief that the young Bottineau coun.
||ty farme7 had been slain.
