I-Vud III Pine Valley Ends In Horrible)
MurdtT of William 5Iooly, a Pio
neer. One of the bitterest feuds ever
known In eastern Oregon has ended In
the horrible murder of William Moo
dy, a pioneer of Pine valley, Baker
county, and one of the most promi
nent stockmen of that part of the
state. After murdering Moody some
unknown fiend mutilated his body In
a most cruel and dastardly manner.
The Oregon Dally Journal's Baker
City correspondent says of the affair:
One of the foulest murders ever
committed In Iiaker county was done
Saturday night, when Home unknown
persons shot and killed Wlllnrd Moo
dy, a prominent rancher of Pine val
ley, about 60 miles from this place.
The slayer had shown his fiendish
cruelty In his work. He pounded the
dead man's head to a pulp with a
club or the butt of a gun, and left
the body lying In the brush less than
a quarter of a mile from Pine.
The body was discovered by a small
boy, the authorities were notified and
a search for the murderer was Imme
diately started.
There Is no known direct cause for
the murder, but surmises are heard
on every side. Between the Moody
family and the neighbors there has
been trouble for years.
The dead man was married twice
and separated both times from his
wife. His brother, Henry Moody,
aged 40 years, was acquitted last
week of a statutory charge preferred
by the father of a 14-year-old girl of
Pine. The feeling ill the neighbor
hood was dangerous at the time and
violence was threatened If Moody
should be acquitted.
When the body of Wlllnrd Moody
was found the eyes had been gouged
out, the nose and Hps were cut off,
and other marks of fiendish hatred
were made.

Further development In the possible

locate the roadbed for a distance of
36 miles or as far as the state line.
For some time the story has been
prevalent that the O. R. & X. con
