This spring the army sent 300
men in for a three-week
search, but they turned up nothing
except a little local hostility. The
folks in Etna are still angry at the
disturbance that the soldiers and
their helicopters caused. Clarence
Anry's horse disappeared for three
days and two frightened cows
ran themselves to death. A few
days after the searchers left, Shir-
ley Free and Howard Pearson's
wife were out collecting old bot-
tles at the grist mill on Cedar
Creek when they stumbled upon
a woman's hand in the underbrush.
Then yet another body was dis-
covered over on Studebaker Road.
It wasn't Cooper. And now Cow-
litz County has two unsolved mur-
ders on its hands, as well as a
phantom hijacker.
