A GHAETEY FIND.
A MiasinE Mans BODY Found Float
ing In the Christlau0.

A MiasinE Mans BODY Found Fl0a,
ing In the Christiaus.
Sunday afternoon as the tide was run
ming out, Elias Turner, a colored man,
who was walking along the south bank
of the Christiana between the Market
and Third street bridges, discovered q
dark object laying on the fat near the
waters edge, which upon inspection he
found 1t to be the body OF a human be-
ing.
He hastened to notify officer Cannon,
who informed the Coroner, and he
with undertaken Palmer proceeded to
the place. The body was found to be
that OF man which from appearances
had been In the water two or three
weeks, as 1t wasvery much decomposed.
In the pocket of bis clothing were a
pipe, q bag Of tobacco, q red cotton
handkerchief, a white hadkerchief, a
blackjack, three bladed bone handled
pocket knife, a sailors knife with q
hole through the end for string, a
pair of steel-rimmed spectacles In an
old fashioned case, and an old leather
pocket-book containing paper, upon
which was written tho address of George
Egle, barber, at No. 40l Lombard
street. In his vest pocket was an old
Western Union telegraph despatch, d.
ted Camden, N. j., December 8, 1881,
and sent by Katie M. Cross to Mrs.
Sarah A. Larkin. No.ll Cade street, over
Eleventh street bridge.
The deceased was about B feet 10
inches in height, rather stout and ap.
parently about 60 years of age. He had
a sandy beard, were blue flannel
shirt, dark coat and pants and a pair
of laced shoes. Shortly after the body
was removed to the morgue a young
man visited the place and pronounced
it that Of Lewis l.. Larkins, his father
in-law, and gave his name as James p.
Stiles, and his residence No. SO4 Lord
street.
Coroner Smith summoned jury and
held an inquest this morning ut the
morgue, when it was shown that the
deceased had left his home at Riddles
Banks four weeks ago last Friday to
come to the Railroad station in this
city, and ascertain if there was a de-
spatch for him from Chester about some
money that he was expecting from
there.
He had promised to be home to dinner,
but nothing was seen or heard Of him
until yesterday. The son-in-law visited
Chester and ascertained that he had not
been there. The testimony showed that
some time ago the deceased had an at
tack OF malarial fever, and that since
that time he had been troubled with |
alteration of mind, aud it is supposed
that he must have fallen in the water |
while suffering from one of these
attacks.
There were no marks on the corpse to |
show violence, and the jury after hear.
ing the witnesses rendered verdict
" That Lewis l.. Larkins came to his
death from causes unknown to the |
jury"
The deceased was at one time watch
man al Riddles Mills, and leaves a wife
and several children. He has sister in |
Chester, and is also related to Mayor
Forwood of that place, who has been
to-
