Medi- cal Examiner Dr. B. W. Kimball was notified and saw the bedy. He gave Church & Allen permission to remove it and it was taken to their rooms. “The body had been in the water for some time, the indications being that it was for about two months. The features were mot recognizable, and there was nothing on the body which would lead to identification. Dr. Kim- ball stated that everything indicated that he was a tramp, inasmuch as he was evidently drossed for warmth, having had 1wo shirts and a_sweater on besides his dark clothing. He wore a celluloid_collar and a neéktie and had a good pair of shoes. The man was five feet two inches in height, solidly built and about 50 years old, it was judged. There was noth- ing in the pockets which would give a clue to nis identity. The body will be puried today. As far as known, there is no one missing hereabouts. Chief Murphy stated that he had received no com- plaint about a missing man and knew of no one here who has mysteriously disapveared.

To his knowl- edge the man had not fallen over- board and nothing of the kind had ever bee reported, He bad no way of con- necting his experience with the body policeman when he heard of the body found. of Nothing to Lead to Identity. reakwater at Perch Rock in Water for Two Months— nnowusb AT VERSAILLES.
