Henry Snider, Retired Farmer,
Apparently Leaped from C.
• °P: _R. Bridge—Body Located
After Search. EL
Henry Snyder, aged 68, a retired
farmer who had been residing on Essex
street, Goderich, for some years, was
found dead in the Maitland River under
the C, P. R. bridge at about 4 o'clock on
Thursday afternoon. ,
Snider, had driven his car down onto
the Maitland Golf course in the morn-
ing, the club professional, Jack Annet,
seeing him park near the entrance to
•. thing -me
wen of the driver, whom Mr. Annet did
not krlow, and the car stood there until
the prolonged absence.. of the owner
aroused the suspicions of both employees
and players.
A search was instituted, two boats
being secured and several men took part
in a search of the ,river. Jas.- Donald
eon finally found the body in shallow
Water under the bridge.
rt, is b4.11eved that deceased jumped
from the bridge after walking from the
• peeked automobile and climbing the
'high bank of the railway file: This can-
not be proved but an mgneet will pees-
sibly Clear the point eupe
Some days ago, deceased was pulled
out of the water of' the harbor by four
Elsvittor Company employees. It was
thought at the time that, he had had a
fainting spell and had fallen in. -
When the body Was found on Thure-
dayt it was removed to the bank and.
Dr. A. H. Taylor was called. Every efe
iart was made to resuscitate him but it
found that head injuries, caused
presumably by the leap from the bridge,
had calmed quick death. There was no
water In the lungs. The remains tvere
removed to AleXandra:Uarine and Gen-
eral 410ipital where a ftirther examina-
