Mr. Deerkop stated that the writing was his, but he had no knowledge of having given such a card to anyone. He feared that the body might be that of his brother, Fred, who had left here some two weeks before. Upon his return home, however, he showed the card to Mrs. Deerkop and she recalled that she had given such a card to a man who stopped at the Deerkop home last spring, looking for his horses, which had got away while he was driving from Farmington to his home, which he said was seven miles south of Potlatch and four miles east of Viola. The man had promised to let her know regarding some pasture for stock. Mr. Deerkop and Hugh Daily then drove to St. Maries, however, to make certain that the body was not that of Fred Deerkop, and an examination proved that it was not. It is considered certain, however, that it is the body of the man who visited the Deerkop home last spring. Mrs. Deerkop took the man in her car to a house south of Potlatch a short distance, last spring, where he was acquainted, and could get a horse to ride home. She did not ask the man his name, nor did she know who lived in the house where she left him.
