ARE CAST UP
BY THE SEA
Victims of the Hayden Brown
Wreck Are Cast Upon the
Shore
Bill McKniglit and I wo others
returned in the launch Annie
from Montague island. They went
there, to get two scows that had
been washed on the shore, being
part of the wreckage of the Hay
den Brown.
While on the island the bodies
of the lost men were found and
buried. One was so mutilated as
to be scarcely recognizable, and
there was nothing about his per
son to indicate his identity. The
other was well dressed and in
good condition. Loiter in his
pocket indicate that his name was
A. C. Jensen. These two moil
were drowned from otT the llay
den Brown and could nol he found
hy the men from tlie cutter Mann
ing, although one of the survivors
reported that they were on the is
land.
In coming from the island with
the two scows in tow the Annie
encountered a small tidal wave,
supposed to he a result of the
volcanic eruption. The waves
were so high that it was found
necessary to cut the scows adrift
in order to save the launch and
the occupants.—Cordova Alaskan.
Miss Thompson requests that
her name be withdrawn from the
voting contest for the Goddess of
Liberty, and hopes that her
friends will vote for some of the
other young ladies.

events of the season. Everybody
