Mr. Daniel Martin was notified by telegram from Clinton on Thursday that the body of his son, William Martin, who disappeared some six weeks ago, was found in the Mississippi River just below the Clinton bridge. The afflicted father and his brother, Mr. John Martin, went to Clinton soon after the dispatch was received, for the purpose of bringing the remains to Miles. William Martin had considerable money with him and it is probable that he was robbed and murdered.
