the work of that city's sO-called

who is blamed for the murder OF

on the lonely, wind-sWept and snow
covered peak of Powell mountain.
Or. EchelS could not make up his
mind how long the bones had been
there. He said 1T appeared that
the flesh had recently been stripped
away" but that "mountaineer folk
told me there were unusually heavy
flights of buzzards in the vicinity
of the peak last fall" and that the
bones might have been preserved
by the cold weather all winter.
Some of the bones had been burn

cribed by DR.. Kalfred Dip Lum,

the people. In conclusion he made
a strong plea for boycott on the
