The remains of John McBride, who was asphyxiated at the Midland hotel last Wednesday morning, were brought to Blair last Thursday afternoon, and the funeral took place Friday. Mr. MrBride had just returned from attending the funeral of his father, and many of his friends doubt very strongly the suicide theory. There are too many ways in which gas in a hotel room may be turned on.
