Yesterday morning about 1880 o'clock
Mr.. Edward Stewart, whose age was
% wears, was drowned in the James
river AT the, Old Dominion Steamship
Company's dock.
The circumstances connected with the
case were these. Stewart was engaged
in working on the wheel OF the sleam-
shin Wyanoke, which 1r' not in perfect
order, and needed repairing. a gang of
men were employed in repairing II,
among whom was the drowned man.
There were two gang planks, one the
regular plank, which lead from the
wharf to the steamship, and this gang
plank had side rails which would have
prevented anyone from toppling over
board The work required, however,
was Of necessity done in The wheel house,
and plank was laio from the wuart
10 The wheel-house, in order to allow
workmen to pass between the shore and
the house, instead of passing over the
regular gangway. The plank leading
from the vessel To the shore WAS
apparently not in position, and
the drowned man started 10 walk
over il, and he and the plank went down
in the water together. He did not seem
to stranele, and apparently made 40 ef-
for, at all TO save himself. He might
have caught on to The ir0n-linE chains o'
the boat or stuck to the plank and swan
on it, but he did neither,
The first heard of the drowning was a
splash in the water. The body was
fished up by employees on the vessel and
brought to deck The Coroner was
present, viewed the remains. but deemed
an inquest unnecessary.
The body was embalmed and taken
back TO New York on the steamer Wy
