A partially decomposed male body aged 45 to 50 was found Monday morning in a straw pile on Rans Baxter’s farm about a mile north of town.

The body bore a stubby mustache and gray beard, and items including a pocket knife and a memorandum book with a Chicago Elgin watch receipt and a vaccination receipt were found. The corpse was interred in Eugene cemetery after authorities were notified and the undertaker received the body.
