SAD DROWNING CASE.
VERDICT OF THE CORO NER's JURY.

VERDICT OF THE CORO NER's JURY.
Yesterday morning the body of Philip 8
Gibbs was found about three-quarters of 9
mile below the mouth of the Christians
Greek, lying under about two feet of water
With one foot over the gunwale of the boat
in which he and Mr.. Smith had gone afte,
ducks the previous day; the body was cold
and stiff and had doubtless been dead fol
some time. Suspicion of foul play being ex.
pressed, Coroner's Jury yesterday after.
noon held an inquest over the body of the
deceased at his residence, 5th e. West Sts.
Mr.. Smith, the fyoung man who accom-.
panied Mr.. Gibbs on the ducking expeditions
was called, and stated the circumstances
OF the drowning; from his testimony 1t ap.
pears that on Tuesday evening Smith and
Gibbs were trswing home from cunning II
being dark and rainy they rowed into the
reeds along the river bank, till the boat
grounded Smith then got out and waded
some distance, but became fastened In the
mud from which he was finally extricated
by some persons who had heard the hallow-
ing he mentioned that Gibbs was in the
boat yet no attention was paid to it witness
says he twas very much under the influence
Of liquor, and hardly knew what he
was doing Gibbs and himself had
taken with them three porter bottles OF
whiskey, and drank about one and one-hal1
bottles Of it; the rest they had thrown
away; testified that deceased was not a
drinking man, and had never seen him in
toxicated.
Mr.. Daniel Gibbs, brother of the deceased,
and Mr.. Cogill, were both called and spoke
of the good character of the previous wit
ness; also the manner of finding the body
yesterday morning.
From the evidence given in there could
not be the least suspicion of foul play of
Gibbs companion; only his thoughtlessness
in deserting him was ell the blame attached
to Smith,. DR.. Springer was called and tes-
titled to having examined the body of the
deceased Gibbs and found on his body no
marks of violence; believed that death was
caused by drowning, while under the infu-
ence Of liquor, as be thought If the deceased
had drank one-half the quantity mentioned
by Smith, it would be sufficient to stupefy
him.
In accordance with the facts the jury rcn-
dered verdict that Philip 8. Gibbs came to
his death from accidental drowning. The
deceased was twenty four years of age, and
leaves wife but no children.
