Body of Feeble-Minded Inmate Found on Farm

The body of Holly Pollock, who three weeks ago disappeared at the state institution for feeble-minded, was found last night in a water tank on the institution grounds. Pollock was 24 years old and classified as a very low grade imbecile.

A careful search had been made for the missing inmate, for it was believed that he was unable to leave the farm. All streams and buildings were searched, and also the tank where he was later found, had been searched. How he got into the tank is a mystery.

Dr. J. N. Smith, superintendent of the institution, called Coroner Rigdon to make an official investigation.
