?Our News Letter.
A Dead Body Found.
Last Sunday morniDg Mr. West
Roberts found the body of an unknown
man on his fish trap just below
Wyse's Ferry, on Saluda river,
and Coroner A. O. Wilson was at
once notified of the grewsome find.
The body had evidently been in the
water for some time as it was badly
decomposed and his face and intrils
had been eaten away by buzzards cr
some other cormorants. The body
was clothed with shirt, suspenders,
and pants of small checked pattern j
in the pockets of which was a pocket j
book containing 11 cents in money j
and two fish hooks. It is not known j
whether the body was that of a ne- j
gro or a white man, as the body was J
so badly decomposed as to be un- j
recognizable. His right foot had
also been torn cff There was no j
visable signs of foul play. The ver- !
diet of the Coronors* jury was as j
follows. ''That the unknown de- |
ceased came to his death from causes
unknown to the jury."' The jury was
undecided as to the color of the deceased.
The Coronor had the body j
buried near the banks of the river.
