Atlanta, Ca, July 25.-The body of Thorn
as Fitzgerald, the young man who was
drowned while bathing in the lake at
Ponce De Leon Springs yesterday after
noon, was recovered about O'Clock this
morning, after nearly every foot of the
lake had been sounded by the searching
party. Fitzgerald who had charge of The
boats on the lake, was a good swimmer
and when he was missed and his clothes
were found at one of the bath houses it
was at first suspected that he had met
with foul play. Charles Gresham and
Ed Sullivan, two young men well known
about town, who were with FITZGERALD
when he went in bathing, were placed ur-
der arrest at / o'clock this morning and
held until after the body was found 1t
was thought that they were implicated IN
Fitzgerald's drowning, but the body bore
such unmistakable evidence that he had
gone to the bottom while suffering from
cramps in both arms and legs that the
coroner's jury returned a verdict to that
effect and Gresham and Sullivan We're OK
Onerated.
