 The search for the body of Harold Spencer was renewed Wednesday morning by some 26 or 30 willing workers, number of whom had work ed for two days in the endeavor to To- cate the missing bodies.
 Among the persistent searchers was North windham, South Windham am and this city. Rev. Walter B. Lanphear, pastor of the Mansfield Center Congre- gatianal church, was on hand and con- tinued the search as he did the two previous days. He first discovered the oooy ol Me Hubbard boy frozen to the

Gerrick of this city. carried the body up into the vacant lot and then Medical Examiner Mason was notified. The body was found at LILO o'clock in practically the bard toy was found Monday, L.at was at the river bottom and g trife more toward the west shore of the river.
 Medical Examiner Mason gave or ders for the body to be removed to this city. and then he viewed it here and gave orders for its preparation for bur- sal, turning Ii over to Funeral Direc- tors Elmore & Shepard.
 It is considered remarkable that all three bodies were recovered so quickly, and 1t is due to the tireless workers who gave their time and energy for parts of three days in what seemed at the outset an almost hopeless task.
 There will be double funeral for the Hubbard and Spencer boys at the North Windham church Friday after mon. Rev. Walter B. Lanphear. will officiats. The senior class of the Wind ham High school, of which the Spen- cer boy was member, will be repre- snted at the service.
