KILLED BY HOGS.
Well Known Farmer of Multnomah,
Meets a Horrible Death.
Portland, Oct. 28. J. B. Gilbert, a
woll known farmer living near tho
Seven-Mile Post on the Base Line
road, was killed by a boar Sunday
night, as a result of his having at
tempted to stop a fight between two
of his hogB. The boar, which is a vic
ious animal, bit through an artery In
his leg, and the unfortunate man
Jumped Into another pen. It is believ
ed, to save himself. He was found
dead at noon yesterday by his broth-or-ln-law,
his body having been par
tially eaten by the hogs, so that it
was hardly recognizable.
Much of the Information concerning
his death Is only guesswork. It Is
supposed that he went Into the pen
to separate two of the hogs and stop
tholr fighting; and that while so en
gaged one thrust him through the
leg, striking an artery. From the
place ln which he was discovered, it
is supposed that he had strength
enough left to climb Into another pen,
but the loss of blood was so great
that he was unable to save himself
and lay down to die, while the hogs
gathered around and consumed his
body'
When ho did not appear his family
were considerably alarmed, but did
not think of searching for him around
tho farm. At noon yesterday bis
brother-in-law, I. M. Kdwards, found
the remains of Mr. Gilbert in the
pen. 1
He was a man 50 years of ago and
leaves a wife and three children. The
coroner went to the scene of the
trouble this afternoon and is now ar
ranging Jo hold an Inquest. Mr. Gil
bert had made a specialty ol raising
fine hogs, but formerly had difficulty
with' the boar supposed to have caus
ed his death. At 3 o'clock today no
arrangements had been made for the
funeral.
