Coroner Moore was telegraphed, and, accompanied by Dr. Boyer, he proceeded to the residence of the dead, and at once summoned a jury and held an Inquest. No marks of violence were found on his person, and the jury state in their finding that "he came to his death by the visitation of God." He was in the 85th year of his age. / A Human Devil - It seems that the death of the Boyer family in Perry county, a few weeks ago, a notice of which we published last week, was caused by an ungodly son.
