    • Mangled Body Of Stock Man Found In Lot
      Stanford, Ky., Nov.13 (Special) – The mangled body of George W. Spivey, 64, Crab Orchard stock trader, was found late today in a barn lot near his home.
      Acting Coroner T.D. Newland said following an inquest that death was from an unknown cause. Newland advanced the theory, however, that Spivey had suffered a heart attack and that pigs in the lot had attacked him. A team of horse was in the lot and Newland said it was possible that one of the horses had kicked him.
      His wife, Mrs. Mary Jane Peters Spivey [note: this is the name of his mother, not his wife] found the body and reported the discovery.
      Survivors, besides his wife, include four daughters, Mrs. Gabe Hoskins and Mrs. Robert Newcomb, both of Crab Orchard, and Mrs. Josephine Spath and Mrs. Bessie Robinson, both of Hamilton, Ohio, and three sons, Henry Spivey, Crab Orchard; Arthur Spivey, Advance, Ind., and Elzie Spivey of Michigan.
      The body was taken to the Beazley-Raney funeral home here. Funeral services will be held Monday afternoon, but further arrangements have not been completed.
