(Plain Dealer Special)

Erie branch of the Friends of Soviet Russia, was found murdered
in his store, 623 18th street, this afternoon.
Dan DUNDON, a parcel post
carrier, who had been trying to deliver packages at the store
for two days, discovered the back door open, stepped inside and
saw MARTIUS body lying on the floor. MARTIUS
had been killed with a hatchet, which was lying beside the body.

while he was alone. His wife and two children are visiting
in Cleveland. |
