Body Found in Quarry
Mysterious Death of a West Rutland Man Saturday Night
The body of Patrick McGarry was found yesterday morning abut 10 O'clock in the new
opening of the Albertson Quarry, about one and one-half miles north of West
Rutland, with a gash five inches long at the back of his head.
Considerable mystery surrounds the affair, as the death must have occurred into
Saturday night and no explanation can be given as to what the man was
doing near the quarry at that hour. Suicide and even foul play have been
suggested, but it is generally believed to have been an accident.
Mr. McGarry was in this city Saturday night and returned to West
Rutland on the electric car, leaving the Merchants row switch at 10 o'clock Upon
reaching West Rutland, he went into J. B. Gibson's barber shop
and got shaved. He seemed to be alright at that time. |
