McIntyre
Coroner's Inquest Report.
State of Indiana,
Porter County.
BE IT REMEMBERED, That on the 24th day of August, 1876, information was given to me that the dead body of a man was found beside the Baltimore Railway near Burdick Station, In Jackson township, of said county and state, supposed to have come to his death by casualty, and I thereupon caused a jury to be summoned, sworn, and charged to ascertain, so far as possible, the cause and circumstances of said death. Witnesses, accordingly, were called and sworn, and testimony taken and reduced to writing, signed by both said jury and myself, and filed in the Clerk's office of said county; whereupon said jury made their verdict that decedent's name was to them unknown, that he was of floris complexion, five feet and six inches high, thirty-five years old, wore blaack coat and vest, brown pants and high shoes, and had one dollar in his pocket. No other valuables were found upon his person. As he had no relatives or friends to take charge of his body I notified the trustees of the township to provide for his interment.
W. C. PARAMORE,
Coroner of Porter County.
