They were forced| to gain entrance by crawling| through a transom. ‘ Medhaug’s body was found face| down on the floor of the room in front of the dresser. Nearby was| a straight-edge razor, with which| the death wound had apparently | been inflicted. ‘ A member of the Elks lod Medhaug has been living in Ju-| neau for some time. He is survived | by a wife, Mrs. Cecilie Medhaug, | a daughter, Jacobine, and two| sons, Lyder and Knut, all living in' Kopervik, Norway. | The body is at the Charles W. Carter Mortuary, where funeral ar-| rangements will be announced after | the family has been contacted.
