ing the watch as a Christmas
present several years ago. She
had also presented her husband
with the knife on his birthday.
Army Shoes
Mrs. Becker identified the gun
as one which her husband had
taken off a German in World
War I as a souvenir. The shoes
had small holes cut in them and
the widow stated that her hus-
band had done this because of
corns on his foot. She also re-
called asking her husband for
this particular pair Of shoes for
wear around the barn and gar
den but he stated he could wear
them after making room for his
COrnS.
Wealthy Farmer
The prominent and wealthy
Elk township farmer disappeared
from his home on June 80, l947
The morning he vanished he told
his son TO get cleaned up for a
trip 70 Marietta. He stated that
while in Marietta they would
visit a doctor. Later when the
family discovered his absence, a
search disclosed that the family
car was locked and the KEYS
missing. No keys were found on
the body.
On June 18 an insurance pre-
MUM check had been received
by Mr. Becker amounting to
$4,000 and a check revealed that
it was cashed at the Peoples
Bank, Marietta, between June l8
and the day of his disappear
ance
Large Sum of Money
Authorities are reluctant to
turn too much light on the sub
jcCt but they are certain the
slain man carried at least $11, 900
on his person when he vanished
Neighbors and relatives claim to
have seen Becker display the
money only few days before
he vanished. Mrs. Becker also
reprOached her husband for dis
playing such an amount in pub
lie.
German Gun
Working on the theory that
they had overlooked the money
on Sunday evening, Coroner
Berry and Deputy Sheriff George
Mckee returned to the Lorenz
farm Monday and went over the
area carefully. The only new
clue turned up was an uneXplod-
ed .32 cal. cartridge. The German
gun will handle 80 cal. Amer
ican ammunition. The clip in the
automatic was empty at the
time it was discovered. Author
tiles are still searching for the
expended cartridge which tore
through the roof of the mouth
and emerged from the skull
above the right eye.
