He had probably been dead twelve hours or more. The body was suspended by a rope around the neck, one end being fastened to a limb above. Another rope hung down from another limb aud was twisted around the first one, His hands were fastened together behind the back with a’ slipnoose. .The first impression was that a murder had been committed, but after a thorough examination the coroner:came to conclusion. that_ it was a case of suicide, OTHER GRA SS VALLEY NOTES.
