THE OWHYEE AVALANCHE

MAY 14, 1892

Dennis Holland, while driving cattle along Snake River last week on what is known as the “Half-moon Trail,” discovered the dead body of a man on the bluffs below.  Examination disclosed that man and horse had evidently rolled off the trail.  The remains of a pack saddle, a sawed-off shot gun and a silver dollar, minted in 1866, were also found.  The man had evidently been dead about 20 years.  The remains were given decent burial.
