Drowned off Long Point

Port Dover, 24 Nov 1900 -- Fishing tugs return-ing from Long Point this evening report that Messrs. H. B. Barret [sic], C. G. Warren and H. Holden were crossing from Port Dover to Long Point for shooting and when crossing the sand bar about half a mile from the point, in a very heavy sea, caused by strong easterly gales, Messrs. H. Holden and C. G. Warren, who were in one skiff, were upset and drowned.

Mr. H. B. Barret [sic], who was alone in an-other skiff, battled heroically with the waves, and reached shore on Long Point safely. 

The tug men state that on account of the heavy sea and not having any yawl boat it was im-possible to reach them or render assistance.

As soon as the wind changes and the sea sub-sides a search party will go out with tugs to find the bodies.

Body of C. G. Warren Found

Maple Leaf--Wednesday night shortly after 10 o'clock, Mr. H. B. Barrett arrived in Port Dover with the remains of our much lamented towns-man, Mr. C. G. Warren, who was drowned off Long Point on 24 Nov.

The body was found Monday, 21 Jan 1901 by S. Holliday and his son on the north shore of Long Point near Duncan's Pond.

Mr. Holliday at once despatched [sic] his son to Port Rowan with a message to Mr. Barrett, he himself remaining at Gravelly Beach shanty in charge of the body until Mr. Barrett, who was in Port Rowan at the time, could reach the spot having to drive some 40 miles.

There was no difficulty in identifying the body which was buried on Thursday morning with Masonic honors from his late residence. Rev. R. Herbert held service at the house.

A large number of relatives and friends as-sembled to pay the last sad tribute to one who will long be remembered and deeply regretted in the town. His sorrowing widow and young orphans have the deepest sympathy of the whole community.
