On Friday of last week two men
who were sawing shingle bolts in the
woods near Karthaus, found a skel-
eton of a man lying in a boggy hole
in the ground about 50 feet from a
stream called Cold Run. The body
was badly decomposed and It was im-
possible to determine whether it had
been there two years or ten. There
wis a large hole In the left side of
the skull. A Coroner's jury decided
that the man, whose Identity remain-
ed a mystery, had met death at the
hand of a person or persons un-
nown The remains were buried
on the site. Many vears earlier hun-
