W.W. Casey was found dead last night about 7:30 o'clock in his trailer house north of the Kelly Hotel.
Judge G.C. Knight, who investigated, attributed death to chronic indigestion and said apparently Casey had been dead 18 to 20 hours.
He had complained of not feeling well the night before last, and it was not until last night his body was found by a friend who was puzzled at his non-appearance for work in a local bar.
The body is at the Powell Funeral home awaiting arrival of relatives from Louisiana and Tennessee.
