OBITUARY: 
SAWYER DIES BY MORPHINE. 
Stranger Found Dead on Floor at Salem Lodging House. 
Found dead on the floor of his room at the Salem lodging house, a man who had registered as I. Sawyer the evening before, was discovered by the proprietor at 9:30 yesterday morning, although he had been dead some hours. 
In the room was a bottle of morphine from which a considerable amount had been taken, and a partly emptied bottle of whiskey. The man was about 50 years of age and was dressed as a laboring man. In his pocket was a notebook containing the name of C. Knauss, but nothing to show where the man came from. Coroner Clough was called but considered an inquest unnecessary. The body is being held at the Cottage undertaking parlors awaiting possible further identification.
