Body Found,

The body of Harry Mills, who
was drowned in Mobiles Lake
Sunday evening, came to the
surface at lO:45 last evening
and Was rescued. The body
came TO the surface in just a
little over twenty. four hours
after he was drowned. Several
hundred searchers worked all
day yesterday and were still
working when the body came
to the surface.
Two loaves of bread filled
with mercury had been placed
in the water and the boat which
picked up the body had been
arcing for the bread when
they found the corpse. Appar-
emily the boy drowned further
to the north than was thought
as the body came to the surface
nearly straight out from the
county line fence white the
searchers had worked to the
south of that. AS soon as the
body was brought to shore it
was wrapped up and taken to
Logan in a car.
The business men of Logan
sent down all kinds of lunches
for the searchers, and Mayor
Prather Of this city sent out all
kinds Of eatab!es so that the
cold and hungry swimmers
would have something to slim
alate them when they came out
of the water. A collection
should be taken to reimburse
Mayor Prather for what he ex-
pended and not let the burden
Fall all on one man. A little
from each one would soon make
up the purse and not work a
hardship on anyone.
Soon after the body was found
Willis Stern had a telephone
message from Mr.. Mills asking
MIR. Stern to thank all who had
worked so valiantly to recover
his boys body.
