BADLY MANGLED Acy Spicer Meets With a Horrible Death at Eckles. Coroner Newman was summoned to Eckles Friday and he returned with the body of a man which had been crushed and torn out of resemblance to a human form. The head was but a mass of pulp and the legs and arms mutilated and dismembered. Roger Martin prepared the body for the burial which took place Sunday at county expense.
The deceased was Acy Spicer, who has a family at Stephens, in Marshal county. He was about fifty years old. He has been working in McCann's camp near Solway with a son. He came to Bemidji Thursday to get a tooth pulled. Upon his not returning to the camp, the foreman started out in search of him. He found the body within a few hundred feet of Eckles station, where Spicer had probably attempted to board a passing freight train. (Bemidji Daily Pioneer, Feb 20, 1902)
