his name was James LEVEL, that he was a gardener, and lived at Glenvale. A man named Philip, who is also
employed at the Longreach Hotel, says the deceased was in a bar on Thursday morning when he told him he had no money,
and had lost £10 and a bank book showing credit of £300. The deceased was almost crying at the time, and said he would not go home as he had a wife
and grown up daughter. The police have since been informed that he lived some time ago at Limestone Hill, near Ipswich, and had a son named Thomas
LEVEL residing at Coochin Coochin, in the Logan district, and another son named Charles LEVEL living at Gentle's Hotel, Toowoomba.
