All round the sound posts have been
erected on which are fastened bronze

A DOUBLE
FATALITY
LAST night
Chas. Hurley and Cora GYs-
land Were Victims
Bodies Found Today, Clasped
IN Death Grip
Five Others Remained IN the
Launch and Were Saved

Detroit, Mimi, Aug. 16.--Two lives
were sacrificed last night to a foolish
panic on q gasoline launch. The dead
are Chas Hurley, aged 80 and Cora
Gysland, aged 21, cook and head
waitress respectfully at Hotel shore
ham, near where the fatality occurred.
The two victims were, with a party
of seven in gasoline launch, taking
a. ride on Lake Sally. One of the
men of the party lighted q cigarette
and threw the match down beside the
engine.
There was a small amount of gaso-
line beside the engine and instantly
there was a sharp explosion and the
oil and gasoline in the bottom of the
boat flared UP.
Miss Gysland became panic stricken
and said to her companion, Hurley,
Lets jump" They clasped hands
and leaped into the lake and went
down to their death. The other five
remained on the launch, the fire soon
died out and they were saved.
This morning about 10 o'clock the
bodies OF the two victims We're found,
clasped together In a fearful death
grip from which it was almost impos-
sible to extricate them.
DR.. Cool of Minneapolis, who is
spending a few days at Shoreham and
who is today a guest of DR.. f. e.
Ball in Fargo was an eye witness Of
the fatal accident at Lake Sally last
night.
