After Many Years.

The body of a guide, perfectly pre-
served, has been yielded up BY one OF
the Swiss GLACIERS after period Of
twenty -oDs years. In 1887 the guide
fell into a crevasse. His body was
lately recovered and his appearance
was unchanged by its long imprison-
ment in the ice. There have been
other cases Of the bringing back Of a
long-lost body held for years in the
close embrace OF the ice. Some Of
them are mentioned in Mrs lie Bonds
"True Tales OF Mountain Adventure. y
One of the first instances on the
record is that of the Hamel accident,
which took place 10 1920. Several
guides were swept down by an ava
lanche and hurled into a creyasse.
Hamel prophesied that the glaEier
would yield up again in the course Of
one thousand years. but Doctor Forbes
believed that the end Of the glazler
would be reached by the bodies in
forty years. This statement was con-
gidered bold. but It's accuracy was
borne ont by the event. In forty
years the Aow Of ice brought the bod
les to light.
In 1865 Henry Arkwright was lost
in a glazisr. In just 81 years his
brother received a telegram from the
mayor Of Chamouni that the body was
found. Every article Of clothing was
intact. His name aud regiment could
be read clearly on bis handkerchief
and bis gold pencil case opened and
shut as easily as when be last used it.
