Find Body of George Biccum
In Yaak River La st Night
I
The body of George Biccum, age
44, was found at 5:40 p. m. yester
day by Patrolman Robert Riddle.
Biccum's body was found in the
Yaak river and death resulted from
drowning.
Monday morning about 6 o'clock
Biccum's partner, Joe Same, who
was "baching" with Biccum was
awakened by his partner, who ap
parently crazed, attempted to
Samz with a hunting knife,
latter made his escape and ran to
the Yaak postoffice about a mile
distant. When he returned some
time before noon Biccum was miss
ing.
When the missing man failed to
appear during the afternoon, Samz
began looking for him but the only
trace be could find was an old en
velope with a hat of tools compiled
by Biccum, which was floating in
the river pool where the men got
their water. When Biccum failed
to return by Tuesday morning,
Samz came to Libby and notified
Sheriff A. R. Livengood.
The Sheriff went out Tuesday to
the cabin on the Yaak but was
unable to find any trace of thç
missing man. Yesterday (Wednes
day) he returned, accompanied by
Patrolman Riddle. ' The officers
searched all day and at 5:40 p. m.
while in a boat, Riddle found the
body under some brush about 200
feet below the place where the men
dipped their water and the envelope
had been found. There were no
signs of external injury on the
body, and the officers sent the Lib
by undertaker back after the re
mains last night.
Biccum, who had lived in the
Yaak section about two years, is an
ex-G. I. The only relatives the of
ficers know of, are a brother and
sister, both living in Spokane. No
funeral arrangements are available
as The Western News goes to press.
