SHEEP HERDER FOUND DEAD AT KEYSTONE MINE

Sam ALEYTA, herder in the employ of Andy Maneotis, was found dead Sunday in a sheep wagon at the deserted Keystone Mine. He had evidently been dead for several days.

Sheriff Robson, acting coroner since the death of Howard Root, and Ernie Anderson determined that his death was attributable to apparently natural causes, possibly a heart attack.

ALEYTA, who had worked in several other states, most recently in Wyoming, had only been working in Colorado since July. Up until this writing, no relatives could be found.
