BODY OF MISSING
The body of Robert Eichler, a
millwright, was found in an ad
vanced stage of decomposition, in a
small house at Valdez.
It is learnel from those acquaint
ed with the man and neighbors in
the vicinity of the house, that no
thing had been seen of him since
last fall, and from counter slips
found in the house it was ascertain
ed that the last purchase he had
made in the stores was about the
middle of October, and the proba
ble time of his death is fixed at
about November 1. The position
in which the body was found and
the fact that at the time of death
he was fully dressed and wearing
shoe-pacs, indicates that he had
just come into the cabin and fallen
to the floor, either in a drunken
stupor in which he perished, or had
died instantly of heart failure.
Eichler was a man of about 40 to 45
years of age, about 5 feet 5 inches
in height and of dark complexion.
The fact that a man has laid
undiscovered for more than eight
months is accounted for by the dis
position of the accused, lie was a
recluse, having no intimate friends
or associates, and desiring none.
When about town he rarely spoke
to any one, and was therefore little
known. He had been out of employ
ment for some time, and was with
out funds. Knowing his condition
several people people from time to
time had assisted him, and he did
not suffer from want of food. Late
in the fall or early winter he was
missed and the rumor went out that
he had gone to Anchorage, from
what source is not known now, but
it is presumed he had stated his in
tent so to do to someone and this ex
planation of disappearance was ac
cepted. As the place where he re
sided is within less than 100 feet
from the sclioolhouse it is also
strange that the children, who fre
quently played about the place, did
not notice the odor, but apparently
did not, nor did any of them attempt
to enter the place, although the door
was unlocked.
