Two American prospectors were in the foothills of the Sierra Madre on the Puertas Verdes River, when they came across a saddle on a limb in a dead tree high up in a gorge the river ran through. A bleached skeleton was lying stretched out on a blanket close to the tree, and next to it was a copper rod. Piled on the tree were saddle bags, a book, a package of letters bound by a rubber band, six suits of underwear and some blankets. There was also a canteen and a bible with the name of Francis Schlatter written inside the cover. Needles, thread, buttons and other items were found in a knothole in the tree.
