                Obituary

                CHARLES M. LIND
                In a barn near the old Weeks mill at La Honda the body of Charles Lind, the itinerant harness maker, was found hanging from the rafter Thursday by A. Basett. The Coroner's office was at once notified and Deputy Coroner Claude Fox brought the body of the suicide to town that evening. Mr. Fox was assisted by O. Woodhams.

                From the decomposed state of the remains it is evident Lind had hung himself a week before he was discovered. An ordinary baling rope was used to do the job. One end of the rope was tied to one of the rafters and the other end was placed around his neck, and thus suspended, Lind slowly strangled himself, the tips of his shoes resting on lie ground. On the first leaf of a memorandum book found on the body was written the following: November 6, 1899 - I owe to Dalve $26; I owe P. Mathiesen something in the neighborhood of $15. My effects are in H. S. Neilson's hands at Glenwood Valley farm and I wish the enclosed letter mailed to him. My head is in a whirl and am on my way to him, but am afraid I am going too crazy too fast to reach him. C. M Lind. The letter referred to is dated November 8th and it must have been that day he committed suicide. Lind was a native of Denmark, aged about 56 years and was well known at La Honda and in this city. A receipt was found in his clothing showing that he was recently reinstated in the Ancient Order of Druids. The remains were interred in the Druid's plot in Union Cemetery yesterday.

                  JOHN LINDQUIST
                  Redwood City Democrat
                  June 4, 1903

                  John Lindquist, a farmhand at the Alpine, lived a full week, while suffering from injuries that would in half the time caused death of an ordinary man. His sudden death at Gliolis ranch Sunday night aroused suspicion and his body was taken in charge by coroner Crowe, who took steps to investigate his death. Dr. Ross held an autopsy on the body and ascertained that three ribs of the deceased man had been fractured, the jagged end of one piercing the left lung causing pneumonia.
                  It was further ascertained that Lindquist received his injuries at MayÍield one night by being brutally kicked or beaten by three men named Pete and Ed McCormick and John Soto. Lindquist visited Mayfield on the Saturday previous and after paying a few debts visited the saloons of the town and drank heavily displaying the money he had brought with him.
                  Sunday evening he went to Telmont’s Saloon and at a late hour went out the side door into the alleyway. The barkeeper, John Lindstrum had occasion a little later to go out and went out the same side door and found Lindquist lying on the ground apparently dead.
                  He was brought into the saloon and in a short time regained his senses and said that after going out the door, a man climbed over the gate which separates the alley from the street and knocked him down. Before he lost consciousness two other men came in through the gate and commenced to kick him. The following day he identified his assailants, who were arrested at the inquest, when Lindquist’s death was ascertained.
                  Dr. Ross went to San Jose yesterday and testified at the examination of the accused.
                  They will be held to answer to a charge of murder.
                  Lindquist’s body was buried in Union Cemetery yesterday.
