They had gone some distant they went into a barn to obtain a little rest. During tbe night be became chilled, and in looking for something to cover bimse with, fell to tbe floor beneath and was killed. Dispatches announced the fact all over the country, and it was owing to tlrs tbat so many persons were found to be missing of which such long accounts have been published No ons recognized the corpse.

Upon examining further, one of his fingers and a mark upon the body proved positively that it was ha.
