They lay just as the slayers bad thrown them, some with gaping wounds showing that they bad fought hard for their lives, while others lay huddled up as if their murderers had done their fiendish work while their victims lay in a drovken Sapo A be hunters informed the authorities and an investigation follow- ed, but no clew could be found to the identity of the corpses, which were so decomposed au to be beyond recognition, a8 the murderers had taken care to rob them of everything, © remaing of the seven men were buried in one grave, They are supposed to be victims of house murders, Jrope 1887.
