AGED RECLUSE FOUND DEAD
HERMIT OF SWAX ISLAND DIES
ON SCOW.
Was .Man of Mystery and Never Told
Name to His Two Acquain
tances In Portland.
An old man, whose name the author
ities have not yet been able to learn,
but who was known as the Hermit of
Swan Island, was found dead yester
day morning at 9 o-clock on the floor
of a small soow which the Willam
ette's high water had left aground on
the Island's shore, and which had long
been the home of the - recluse. Al
though no autopsy has been performed.
it Is believed that death was the re- i
suit of natnral causes. The body was
found by S. F. Morrison and J. H. Phe
lan, ranchers, who lease the island.
It bore no marks of violence and death
had occurred from 24 to 48 hours be
fore the discovery was made.
Little is known of the white-haired
castaway save a few facts which have
been gleaned In. occasional chats with
him by the ranchers. Morrison and
Phelan. They leased the island a year
ago and the old fellow was there then
and had been living there for an in
definite period. Ho spoke German and
broken Knglish. and wore clothing
more tattered, torn and patched than
that of a veritable Robinson Crusoe.
He told them that he had a sister liv
ing In Germany whom he had loaned
JIT.1 on a note, which was soon to
become due. and that le then expected
to go back to his native land. They
did not learn his name or that of his
sister, and he steadfastly refused their
offers to quarter him at ' their home.
Occasionally he did chores for them.
He had not been away from the Island
during the past year.
Whenever Morrison and Phelan went
to town they would go by his scow
and purchase any supplies that he
wanted. He was last- seen n.llve on
Tuesday. Yesterday morning the two
men were riding over the island round
ing up their cattle and passed the
scow. They called, and getting no
response went inside. The body was
lying on the floor by the bed. fully
dressed. The men secured a boat and
rowing up to the dock of the North
Pacific Mill Company telephoned to
the Coroner's office. Deputy Coroner
Dunning took charge of the remains.
He searched among his effects, but
could find nothing to show that he
had been in communication with
friends or relatives. A bank ' book
showing deposits of $7S.M at the Se
curity Savings & Trust Company was
found In his pocket. Its number is
13325. His name will be learned from
the bank officials today. An autopsy
has been ordered to ascertain the cause
of death.
The tenants of the Island told the
deputy coroner that the dead man had
spoken of his relatives In Germany as
If they were well-to-do people. It Is
not known how long he had been liv
ing about Portland or where he came
from. He was between 60 and 70
years of age and wore a long, flowing
beard.
