elry and papers were the only
way for friends TO claim their dead

him. Finally plain gold ring was taken

was that of boy of fourteen, whose father
only knew him by comparing the cloth OH
his coat with rag he had brought from
home. Many romances have turned up,
chief among them being the cases Of young
engaged couples who drowned together
The warm weather and shallowness of the
water and heavy swells from passing
steamers brought the bodies to the surface
very quickly. The patroling row-boats,
which have been directed by G.. A. Carl
son. of this city, tOwed the bodies ashore
Mr. Carlson's own boy is one of the lost
and the fathers grief has been intensified
by his inability TO get the missing body.

was also among those found to-day.
