Description
Clothing
A remnant of a pair of light colored woven boxer shorts still have the red cloth trim attached to the waistband. One side the trim is slightly shorter than the shorts and on the other side it is considerably longer and appears to have been originally formed the edging for at least one leg. Except for where the fabric is attached to the waistband and one stitch at the bottom of the fly all of the other stitching is complete degenerated. The fabric is very worn but intact except for only three small defects on the posterior aspect, the largest of which measures 1/2 inch. None of these defects are suspicious for cut marks.
Near the Body
Clothing
A pair of corduroy pants have been reduced to threads except for pocket linings and the corduroy fabric immediately surrounding the rusted metal zipper and metal fastener at the waist on which is written the word “Cowden”. There is a label with red stitching reading “Cowden Since 1919 Made In USA” attached to the threads. Another small label reading “Cowden” is incorporated in some residual black stitching attached to the threads of the fabric. Some of the stitching of the pockets has degenerated. There are many dried sticks caught up in the threads of this material.

Footwear
A 11 inch long, complete, leather sole from a right shoe including a 1/2 inch high heel has multiple small nails along its edges. Two separate remnants of very worn, dirt stained, dense leather material include a remnant containing a few similar nails and one rounded edge which appears to have been stitched. It measures 6 inches in greatest dimension. The second remnant measures 9 inches in greatest dimension and includes some small islets near a stitched edge as well as the portion of the shoe which was nailed to the sole. The remnants are most consistent with being from a shoe rather than a boot.
