In Quest of Pleasure.
Yesterday morning about II o'clock the
boys hired skiff at French's boathouse
at Twining City and started on a trip in
the direction Of the upper Potomac. DON
ming their bathing Suits while moving up
the river. When about 200 yards from
the Highway bridge they decided to take
dip In the water. and Melcher, the
| swimmer. was to determine the depth of
the water. He went overheard from the
stern, but before he had time to advise
Hodge OF the danger the latter jumped
into the water from the bow of the small
craft.
Melcher hearing his companion strug-
Cling in the water, went to his as
, sistance. first throwing him an oar. He
caught hold of his companion and they
, disappeared beneath the surface of the
water together. After going under a
second time the youths became separated,
and Melcher, who was almost exhausted,
saw nothing more of Hodge.

Body Recovered by Police Boat.

When Melcher had partly recovered
from the effects OF his exciting struggle
he returned to the water. but was unable
to locate Hodge. 1t was about 30
O'Clock when the drowning occurred, and
about one hour later the harbor police re-
covered the body.
The body was taken from the morgue to
the Hodge home after Coroner Nevitt had
made an investigation and given a GER
tiflcate of accidental death.
