It was first thought that he had been foully dealt with, but no marks of violence have been discovered and there was no sign of a struggle in the vicinity. His son, a young man, on his way home had passed within a few feet of his dead father, but he thought that it was some drunken man and paid no attention to him.

The party then concluded to walk to town, and to do i . - • 11 v 11 ,i u ^stli -wi >rk, a distance of llil) feet. When half way across the trestle thev were horrified to see a car approaching from the east at a terrific speed.
