Margaret Hunt and family of Upalco, Utah, were overjoyed last Thursday when her son, Ben R.

The friends had learned that he was still alive tlirough a chain letter he had forwarded. He arrived in Upalco last Thursday to give proof to the unbelieve-able message.Whose body lies buried in the Mt.'Emmons cemetery is still a mystery, the only light so far shed on the subject being the information that a Mr. Ben L, Hunt was registered at the mine where the cave-in occurred.
