BODY WASHED ON SNAKE RIVER

Coroner Payne Finds That Man is J. W. Swanson Drowned Three Months Ago

The body of a man was found on a gravel bar on an island in Snake River, at Big 
Bend last Saturday, and Coroner Payne, of Ontario went to that place and had 
the remains taken to Parma.  The body had probably been in the water for three 
months.  The only means of identification found on the body was the name, J. W. 
Swanson, of King Hill, Idaho.  Coroner Payne wired that place and received a 
message back from Mrs. Swanson to bury the remains and that she would stand 
funeral expenses.  

Additional Comments:
Burial location is unknown.
