Circulation Over YOUNG MAN MANGLED NEAR SNOW SHOE SAD FATE THAT BEFEL EDWARD BULLOCK, TWO TRAINS PASS OVER BODY Evidently Was Lying on Track—Found Next Morning—Identified Only by Hat Band-—-iLeaves a Widow and Four Children—A Sad Affair. The horribly mutilated remains of a man's body found along the railroad track near Clarence on Tuesday morn- ing, created considerable excitement in that vicinity this week, especially when the hody was identified as that of Ed- ward A. Bullock, a well known citizen of Snow Shoe. The discovery of the accident was made by John Musser, an operator at Park, a small station near Snow Shoe. Mr. Musser was riding to Clarence on a motor cycle, such as are attached to the rail. The first in- timation he had of the tragedy was when he beheld the sickening spectacle of the headless body lying at the side of the track. The arms were also missing, and the head, with the fea- tures obliterated, was found some dis- tance away. It was some after Mr. Musser made known his discovery that any- one could tell to whom the mangled remains belonged. Mr. Confer, the Snow Shoe undertaker, was notified and upon his arrival helped to estab- Jish the unfotunate man's identity. In gathering up what remained of the head Mr. Confer recognized a bald spot peculiarly similar to the features of Edward Bullock. All that could be gathered together of the remains were taken in charge by Confer and conveyed to his estab te be prepared for burial Just how Mr. Bullock will probably went to Monday time Mr shment death He y nevel Clarence time d and it is the that he tempted to board a fr tht tra his return trip, and wn der the wheels, The pose 1 to have occu tween 7 and 8 o'cle ening.
