Tuesday morning he was up bright and early and away to the low lands along the Willamette to get an early shot at the ducks that are supposed to be numerous in that locality.

At the time of his death it was generally reported that he had committed suicide by taking an overdose of morphine. This now turns out to have been a mistake, as nothing to indicate suicide was devel oped at the inquest held over the re mains. Mr. Fitch left a wife and three children.
