continued, Sunday. when Joe Mich

bottom from the breakwater down to
shoal water, nearly down TO the out

a through one and proved that the
body was not there and that it must
have been carried down river in the

The probabilities now are that the
body will not be found until it comes
up at the end of the time when bodies
usually rise TO the surface.
