After dragging the river and keep
ing up a watch night and day for the
body of Alfred Urw in, the search was
finally given up this week. The only
hope now is that the body w ill come
to the surf see of the water and some
one may happen to see it. It is indeed
very sad for the bereaved family to
know that their boy is sleeping be
neath the waves of the waters of the
river. If they could only find him and
lay his remains to rest how much care
and sadness would be removed from
their minds. The only hope now is
that the current changing in the
river may yet uncover Alfred's remains.
