RIVER YIELDS UP
OTIS CALVIN BODY
City Business Man, Missing
Since Dec. 13, Found
in Water.

Identified by dental fittings, lodge
cards and keys, the body of Otis F.

Sand and Gravel Company, today
was in Roster & Askins undertaking

Search for Calvin, who dis
appeared Dec. IS, ended early
Saturday night when Delamas Nc
Mutt, Is, of 1853 West Twenty-ninth
street, stumbled across the body in
White river one half-mile west of
the Michigan road bridge. Current
of the river had eddied it against
the bank of a small island.
The youth was playing with three
companions who may share in the
$1,000 reward posted by Mrs. CAL
vim for solution of the mystery Of
her husbands disappearance.
Seach for Calvin took relatives
and private detectives into many
sections of the United States where
men answering his description were
discovered. No definite trail ever
led beyond a corner drug store to
which he went from his home to
buy cigars, and from which he failed
to return.
There were no indications Calvin
had been murdered, according to
Coroner G. H. Keever.
Mrs. Ida Calvin, the widow and
a brother, Edgar E. Calvin, survive
him. Mrs. Calvin, seriously Ill since
her husbands disappearance, today
