LOOSE FROM THE BOTTOM
OF LEAF.

The body of Sam Smith, porter al
the Elks' Club, who lost his life Wed
nesday afternoon while fishing in Leaf
River near the mouth of Priests
Creek, five miles from Hattiesburg,
was discovered shortly before noon to-

Smith was drowned when the boat
in which he was seated, capsiZed. He
could not swim.
A dozen or more men spent hours

the boat went down, and it became
necessary to fire off sticks of Cyna-

ers as to bring the body to the top.
