SEARCH FOR
STEWARDS BODY
AGAIN RENEWED

Search for the body of Raymond
Stewart, %, of Holtviile, who has
been missing since the automobile
which he was driving plunged into
the Alamo river last Sunday morn
ing, was taken up with renewed
vigOr yesterday. 1t is believed that
the location of the body has been
aseertained in sink hole beneath
the railroad bridge, some 200 yards
downstream from the point where
the ear plunged into the river.
Workmen are busy this morning
attempting to dig the sand from the
hole. They struggled throughout
Yesterday afternoon with the sand
but the swift current refilled the
hole almost as fast AS they could
dig away its contents. A tempo
rary protection is being erected to
swerve the current away from the
spot. The hole in which the body
is believed to lie is about IL feet
deep and filled with loose sand.
1t lies in such maner that
workmen have met numerous obsta
cles in attempting to remove the
sand and al the same time protect
themselves from being sucked into
it. A ste h has been observed
about the u zee since yesterday aft
ernoon viii" leads further to the
belief that the body is there.
Another report. however. com
pletelv discrodits this theory. a w0
man having reported that she saw
the arm of a man, clothed i'll q
blue shirt, protruding from the wa
ter at distance further down
stream. She said that at the time
she saw the arm she had her chil
drcn with her and that she was n
fraid to leave them there. She re
ported the discovery to others. she
said. but the body had apparently
moved to another point in the river
before they arrived.
No further clue has been uncov
cred to solve the mystery of tn"
finding of the women's clothes un-
der the bridge the morning after
the search for Stewart was begun.
The clothing is still unidentified
and chcckup has failed to~keveal
the disappearance Of any woman.
