A Gruesome Find Near Markdale While in .-.filch ui stray cattle >n Monday lakt, the John McFadden family cair.e across the skeleton of a man iu a swamp across the road from their fimii, which is a mile from Markda'o. Othei members of t!u> McKaiulun people vu wed the remains, the authorities uvio notilied, -ind on Tuesday morning tho coroner, of Flesherton, accompanied by Dr. Ego, of Murkdalt*, visitud tliu .spot and found tlio skeleton of what appeared to have been a man "f medium sine and probably 00 years of a^e. They f n- sideral tint death ha 1 taken place fully a year .igu, :ts the clothing fell ii.to pieces when handled, an evidence o' bjini^ thus e.\ posed for a considerable length of time. Of course, not a particle of Hush was found un tlie boms Tin 1 lioily had evidently lain undisturbed- had on a -suit uf blue serge with striped vest, gray overcoat, gurnsey, and wool slurt, black full hat, pair good laced bools not much worn. There w.-ia found in llio pockets a pair of apex, with cover pipe .mil matches, catarrho/.ono pip*' t ooth pick, piece of comb. Tho Coroner considered an inquest unnecessary, so the remains were hurried where found, by Chief McCutchcou. There is no clue to In.-, identity, neither has any portion of the community dis! appeared mysteriously, so that the case fails to even arouse any suspicion as to wh-> it might be or the cause of death. It was certainly a gruesome (ind. The above is taken from the Markdale Standard. Yesterday the Times was in conversation with a Markdale man who said tha 1 it was possible the skeleton was that of Alex. Urahnin, a rather peculiar clwrauter who had been about Markdalo about a year ago and who had disappear- ed. His going bad aroused no comment as he was a lone mail without kith or kin apparently. The supposition is that ho went to the swamp and died there. His mama was of a religious turn nnd lie had attracted much attention by publicly praying on the streets and predicting dire caUmities f i r Markdale. O.S.Times.
