He was the fourteen years' old son of Mr. and Mrs. Willlam R. Robinson, and with_three companions, John De Roc- co, Edward Donohue and Charles Boyington, were fishing seated on a boulder at the edge. of the quarry hole. The Robinson boy slid off into the water and being burdened with rubber boots and an overcoat, he Was unable to swim. The other boys could render him no assistance and ran off to summon aid, but in the meantime the boy drowned. Imme- h was commenced for by the aid of trawl lines, and finally the body was drawn to the ce by Wiilam Ledward and landed. In his effort to reach the surface the boy had extricated him- self from the water-filled boots, and the body was. recovered on a ledge about eight feet below the surface of the water. On the side of the quarry hole where the Robinson boy fell in is a shelving mass of granite and at the end there is an abrupt depth of forty feet. Had the body gone to the bot- tom of the quarry hole, which would have been the case had he fallen in on the opposite side, search would have been useless, as the body could not have been located, and would have remained below the surface, un- til the customary time had elapsed for the natural rising of a drowned person. Soon after the body was recovered Dr. M. H. Scanlon, medical exa: er, was summoned, and gave permif for its removal. He will make further in- vestigation before returning the death certificate.
