Morphine death shifts corpse to former home in Morroomery
Coroner Campbell sent Minnie Barganeer body to her former home for burial after she died from morphine overdose. A private boarding house keeper handed a trunk containing her belongings and two odd notes signed E.T. with a letter from Mobile praising her dressmaking. Authorities seek the man behind the notes and letters as speculation links him to the deceased woman and her alleged desertion by her father. Two other items recount a train incident in which a father and daughter leapt from a moving train. the man Stephen Beck and girl Leian Beck survived with injuries, and checks totaling 12,000 marks were found on the body. A separate Biddeford case reports aldermen arrested for vote-list manipulation tied to naturalization issues. Mississippi debates framing a new constitution and whether to submit it to the people for ratification faces uncertainty.
