Louis an Indian being sworn states

One day last week Paul came and said he had found a body in the Fraser River. I went up with Sam & Paul and saw the body. When we got up we brought the body on the shore. I did not know the deceased. The body had been turned over on its back before we took it on shore. There was a small break on the skin of the forehead made by a stick when we taking it out of the logs I think.
