Coroner Clevenger was notified last Sunday that A.C. Linch, a homesteader near Narrows, had been found dead in his cabin. Mr. Clevenger was down and held an inquest. It seemed the old gentleman lived alone and he was found lying beside the stove where he had evidently fallen with either apoplexy or had a stroke of paralysis. Deceased had resided there for some time and was 60 years old.
