Harry Perkins, Walter Fisher, Harry San- derson, Will Fisher and Geo. Duvall, were out in the Eastern branch for a sail, and while near a point in the Washington chan- nel below the navy yard, they discovered the body of a white man floating upon the water. A rope was made fast to the body and it was towed to the south end of the Anacostia bridge and turned over to the police officials. Appearances indicated that the deceased was a man fifty years of age, though decomposition and the ravages of the fish had rendered identification impossi- ble. Three quarter doliars, a carpenter's rule, a pocket comb, magnet and ring were found in the pockets of the clothing. The body was sent to the morgue. Coroner Woodward made an examination and con- cluded that the remains were those of a colored man. From the appearance of the man’s clothing the coroner judged he had been on a boat.
