The hottle was found by Karl Qelrich, 12 years O, of Albany, and turned over to the authori- ties for investigation. The note was written in pencil on a sheet of paper torn from a small note- book. The writing was that of a woman, small and delicate, but ungramatjcally worded. This fact cast doubt on its authenticity, be- cause Miss Doran was well edu- cated and spoke and wrote the English language well. The mes- sage read as follows: “Tuesday, Aug.’ 16, 1927—On sec- ond trip—not feeling so good. En-| gine still miesing, but the boys says it will get better after it runs, a while. But I fear the worst and Awagie Pedler don't look any too pleased when I had a look at him last. Just past a steamship. First sign of life since we left the island at 8. F. behind. Gosh.
