Bourne, a wealthy fanner, disappeared in : 1912. leaving his farm to be handled by Davis, who told inquirers iint Ma cmninTpr had -cone to the
South. For a year he read letters which, he said, were written by Eourne, to the missing man's friends. By accident it was learned that the farmer had been murdered and that his body had been buried for a year in the garden beside his home. Davis was convicted of murder in the first degree, with a recommendation for a life sentence. - . Several years ago tuberculosis of a leg bone developed, and yesterday -morning, as a desperate remedy, the limb was amputated. Death followed 12 hours later. The convict was 60 years old and was a model prisoner, prison officials asserted. The body probably will be sent to 'Preble County, where five brothers and two sisters reside, for burial.
