EARL DODD 0IEDo
DURING SECOND
NIGHT OUT
Coroner Gordon Arrives Home
With Body of Youth Who.
Perished in Mountains
Coroner W. T. Gordon arrived
homo lust night from Hazel Dell
whore ho went with n vehicle to meet
the" body of Earl llodil, the youth
who perished In the snow at tho
summit of tho Cascade mountains
near Waldo Lake a few days ago.
The body was left nt the homo of the
boy s parents nt Natron and the fun
eral n held this afternoon with In
terment in the Nntron cemetery.
The coroner waa nccompnnied to
Eugene by John Gold, who was on
of Dodd'a fellow laborers on A. R.
Tllack's reservoir nt tho Inke and who
helped to conduct the search for the
young man. To a reporter this fore
noon Mr. Gold told the story of
young Dodd'a dlsnppenrance and of
tho finding of tho body. Dodd left
camp Wednesday noon, hnvln.i; sight
ed a deer nearby and wished to fol
low It. Tho snow was about three
feet deep at tho time and tho men
nt the camp cautioned him to be
careful and advised him that ho had
better not go, one of them. John
Krognes, speaking quite sharply, and
told him It wns n foolhardy trick for
him to go out when the snow waa so
deep nnd heavy. Rut Earl laughed
nt their fears and expressed confi
dence that he would be back all right
and set nut with his rifle. As the boy
waa known to be a good woodsmen
and an experienced hunter, no great
fear for his 'safety waa folt until
night full when he did not show up
nt enmp. The men waited until
Thursday morning and then set out
to search for him. They found his
tracks but did not run across him
that day. They returned to camp
Thursday evening and again set out
Friday morning, still fulling to find
him that day. Going out again Satur
day morning they found the body
stiff nnd cold In death, with I ho rifle
lying across It. He wns not In a shel
tered place und evidently dropped
from sheer exhaustion nnd was froi
on to death.
Died Hcvoml Nltflit Out.
II wns evident, Mr. Gold said, that
he died I lie second night nut, judg
ing from the full of snow. Ills t nicks
lending from enmp were covered
more deeply with snow than they
wore near where the body was found.
It Is believed that the young man
became bewildered after reaching a
point about three quarters of a mile
from camp. At ihls point his tracks
showed that he was going In the op
imsltn direction from camp, although
for flvo or six miles he had been on
a straight course toward camp. His
tracks showed that In the Inst half
mllo before he finally stopped, he
sat down about every-hundred feet.
Indicating Hint he was completely
exhausted.
Mr. Gold stated that they had a
hard time getting the body out of
the canyon, where It wns found, to
the camp, but they plnceil It on a
puck horse nnd took It In that mun
ner to Hazel Dell, where the coroner
took charge of It. After lu.arlug tho
story of the hoys' companions tho
coroner deemed thut an Inquest wns
unnecessary.
