Dead Youth Thought to Be Released Convict in Wellesley
A youth about 20, recently released from a prison, was found killed on the Boston and Albany tracks in Wellesley. His body, torn in two, lay near a bridge where investigators suspect he was knocked from a passing train while trying to reach home in the western part of the state. Police had not identified him, despite inquiries to eastern penal institutions. The man was tall, with dark brown hair and eyes, wore gray prison trousers and a hickory shirt, and carried 75 cents.
