HENRY HANNA IS DROW NED,
 CAMBIER BAY
Huntin g Party Ends in Tragedy Yesterday
 Rowboat Capsizes

Hency c. Hanna. aged 2S, was drowned at Snug Cove in Gambler Bay at about 3 o'clock yesterday afternoon when he attempted to swim ashore from an overturned rowboat in which he was hunting geese with Al Slagle and H. C.. Shippey.
 The three men, in company with George Kohlhepp. H. Andre and son, Ludwig Nelson and Rob ert Burns left here Saturday evening aboard the latter's boat Typhoon, on a weekend hunting trip to Gambler Bay They ar rived at their destination Sunday morning.
 Early yesterday afternoon Slagle, Shippey and Hanna deeid- ed to take a round bottomed boat and outboard motor from the North Arm. where the Typhoon was at anchor, and go to Snug Cove tc hunt. The Typhoon was to call at Snug Cove on the way to Juneau in the late afternoon and pick them up.
 Boat Turns Over
 As the three men neared the creek in Snug Cove they called to Shippey. who was handling the motor, to shut it off, as they were within shooting distance of some geese. shippey left hand ed shooter, had his back to the other men as the first shots were fired. Hanna stood up to shoot, and the recoil of the guns of the three men evidently caused the boat to capsize, for the next thing Shippey knew he was in the water. he said, with the other two.
 All chung to the boat, but Hanna is said to have declared he was afraid they would not be able to live long because of the coldness of the water. Shippey and Slagle attempted to disuade him from trying to swim to shore. a distance of about 100 feet, and urged that the best thing to do was to push the boat ahead of them to the beach.
 However, Hanna was determin- ed to strike out for the beach, and removed his boots and pistol which hung from his belt, neg lecting to remove his shell vest, which was practically full of shells. He was within a few feet of the beach when he sud denly called for help and sank from sight.
 Shippey Leaves Boat
 Shippey and Slagle who re- mained with the boat immediately tried to kick off their boots and coats. Shippey managed to get his off first and struck out for Hanna He reached the spot where Hannas cap was floating on the water.
 He dove several times in an unsuccessful attempt to locate Hanna. As he was becoming ex- hausted he went ashore, removed most of his clothes, and then swan out again to try to bring Hanna to the surface. His eff forts were again without result and he returned to shore when he became exhausted. By this time Slagle had beached the boat.
 Once more Shippey went out, this time with a rope around his body, but was again unable to reach Hanna. He became, so tired Slagle had to drag him ashore by the rope. A few minutes later the two men emptied the boat and set out again in search of the missing man. This time they To- cated the body. Shippey dived, but as the tide was high he was unable to reach the bottom
 Body Is Recovered
 The two men then waited un- til the tide dropped somewhat. and then brought Hanna's body to the surface with the aid of an car and rope. For nearly an hour they worked over the drowned man but were unable to bring back a spark of life.
 Distress signals. arranged be- fore leaving the Typhoon, were sent out, and when the tide was well out the Typhoon reached the scene. The body and two men were taken aboard and the boat which left for Juneau, reaching
