Case, well-known Wrangell resi- dent who was swept overboard from a gasboat near Point Retreat, has been abandoned by his friends, following a thorough search of the Admiralty Island shore in the vic- inity of the tragedy. Case was known to have been one of the strongest and hardiest swimmers in the country and it was hoped he had been able to make his way safely ashore and had found refuge either at the lighthouse or in some cabin. 2 The accident occurred about 9 p. m. on March 4 as the gasboat T-2,305, Capt. J. H. Fraser, was rounding Point Retreat. Case was attempting to secure a skiff on the boat’s deck when a wave carried him over the side. Capt. Fraser was unable to res- cue him, as the same wave car- ried the skiff away and it was impossible to maneuver the gas boat in the heavy seas. He cir- cled and saw Case in the water at one time then lost him and was unable to locate him again. He headed a search party early this week to Admiralty Island. It covered about 20 miles on both sides of Point Retreat but found no trace of the missing man. - SKIPPER OF HALIBUT BOAT SUPERIOR BROUGHT HERE WITH SEVERE HAND INJURY ) Here’s a triple-plated recipe for eliminating those breakfast brambles.
