Murdered Man Surprises His Sister-In-Law

One hundred years ago, the following article appeared in the Grants Pass Daily Courier on September 11, 1911:

"A supposed murdered man walked into a Grants Pass home yesterday and surprised his sister-in-law while the man's brother was seeking the body in the woods of Klamath county.  The surprise happened when A.J. Thompson walked into the home of his brother Edgar L. Thompson.  Thompson was working in Klamath county and a report came that he had been killed by some unknown person."

 
Sixty-four years after surprising his family, Alfred J. Thompson was laid to rest in a Klamath county cemetery.
