DEAD MAN FOUND

  On Saturday, the dead body of an Italian, identified as Cassida Specroni, 
was found in a stone quarry northwest of Annville.  He had been dead for 
some hours.  His skull was fractured, and an arm broken, with numerous 
contusions about the body.  The bank over which he fell is forty feet high.  
When the body was first found, it was thought that murder had been 
committed, but a search of the pockets showed his watch, wallet, revolver, 
knife and other valuables intact, and it is generally accepted that he met 
his death by accident in the manner described.
