The Body Of the Missing James walk
or Found ON BoIs Blanc Island
The body Of James Walker, the miss
ing man who disappeared from the par
ty Locating hOmsstsads on Bois Blame
island, On April 25th. was discovered last
Saturday by Chris Osisr and two others
who were searching the island. Sunday
the tug Mary A. Day took q party from
here to recover the body. The situation
when found and the fast that his money,
watch sc. were all found On him dispsls
all thoughts of any foul play. They had
considerable trouble Sunday in finding
the locality, and at n time the party
nearly ~despaired of finding it and had
returned to the spot whore the home
stead party had campsd almost ready to
give up the search, bat concluded to
make one more start and it was fortu.
nate they did. for this time they were
successful. When found the body lay in
q hollow that had been formed by the
%uprooting Of a tree years ago. The
ground was covered with ground hem
lock and these circumstances made it
difficult to see the body unless they
should come right upon it. When found
the corpse lay on its back with both leg,
doubled under the body, locking as if he
had first saAk down on his knees and
then fallen over backwards. A severe
cash was cut in the right check Occa-
stoned, it is thought, by the man falling
on a stub or in his excitement running
against a snag. A handkerchief was
found well saturated with blood and an
other one only partially 80. After the
body was landed here it was taken to
Tuttle's undertaking establishment
where an inquest was held under the
direction of Justice Fife. The verdict
was that death was caused from expo
sure. BY direction of Edward Walker,
tho brother who spent several days in
search Of the deceased, the body was
shipped by express Monday morning to
IOAia. The spot where tho body was
found was not much over three quarters
OF a mile from where the party campsd
and the different searching parties had,
as had been supposed, travelled over
nearly every foot of it and must have
gone very close to whore the body lay.
George Champaign and Timothy Mar
tin were with Mr.. Osier in the search.
They went over Friday, spslt most of
the day in tramping, staid all night on
the island and searched until the after
400 of Saturday before finding the body
and then crossed over in a leaky boat,
through a heavy sea to bring the news.
