The many friends of thc Prince County Hospital throughout the County will be delighted to know that ii deal has been consummated by which that institution has acquired the Frank Johnston property just north of the hospital grounds. This property has a frontage on Central Street of one hundred and sixty feet. It is unquestionably one of the finest properties in the town and has streets on three sides, be- ing one hundred and thirty feet deep on North Market and South Market Streets. It has a large number of fine shade trees and shrubs and has a flne hedge on the three street fronts. The quaint old Green house faces South Market Street. It has eleven rooms, besid- es bathroom. kitchen, and a fine Sun Porch on the West side. This building will immediately be fitted up for a Nurses’ Home.

For a considerable time the Hos- pital has had to contend with a se- rlous shortage of private rooms. This has been particularly felt with regard to the maternity wing. when the nurses move to their new quarters about ten rooms now oc- cupied by the staff will be releas ’ for the use of patients, and the ac- comodatlon of the Hospital will be increased to that extent. Besides plenty of comfortable bed rooms. the nurses will now have a fine par- lor or community room-something they have always needed. When the news of this purchase became pub- llc in Summerside, there was n chorus of congratulations from all sides. Every friend of thc institu- tion feels that the whole property of the Hospital is enhanced in val- ue. and that future expansion is provided for.

About 3 o'clock an Indian, Den-i nis Peters of Rockey Point, was about to return thither in his boat,

lads to take them out for a row. He, took them on board at Richmond‘ Street west. and when 8 short dis!’ tance from shore the boys saw an. object, which they took to be a. sealf floating in the water off Sydney? Street.

discovered it was a corpse. He ati once returned to shore and notifiedl the police station. Constables Train-l or and Doyle went to the scene, and‘ going out in Peter's bout, brought‘ thc corpse ashore. They notified tile Coroner, Dr. Houston, who quickly arrived, and ordered the‘

body taken to Iicnilesseys Under- taking Parlors. Here, on further examination, lie found no marks oi, violence or foul play, and reaclledi the decision. that, iii tile circum-l

ary.

The Police are not surprised at the finding of Mr. Egan's remains in that locality, in fact they made a thorough search of the water- front in the vicinity on last Monday night and again on Tuesday morn- ing. Their suspicions were directed to that place by reason of the fact that the l6 year old lad, Clarence Doucette, who was last. seen in his company, under examination disclos- ed that on the night of Tuesday, September 11th, since which time Ml‘. Egan was missing, lie and Mr. Ivan Curley, a neighbor of the dc- ceased were in his company at about a quarter to ten o'clock. l

At that time Mr. Curley wanted‘ Mr. Egan to come home with him. but the latter wished to go and get a drink. So they parted company, and Mr. Egan. accompanied by Doucette, went to get the drink. The two then went to the west end of Richmond Street, where Mr. Egan brcame ill. Doucettc states that he left him there, leaning against the fence of the Purdy property, and went in search of Mr. Cilrley. Not being able to find thc latter, he re- turned to the spot where he had left Mr. Egan, but he had disap- treated.

It is surmised by the police that Mr. Egan, after Doucette had left him, went west on Richmond street, and fell into the water at its foot. which would be about eighteen in- ches deep at thc time. There he was drowned.

According to this theory, Mr. Egan's body would be in the water \ week when found. and this is borne out by the badly decompo ed condition of the remains.

Doucettc is still being held by the police. not because any suspicion of his being implicated in the death of Mr. Egan attaches to him, but be- cause he has o suspended sentence of theft hanging over him, and ‘be- cause his behaviour since that sen- tcnce was awarded has not been of the best.

The late Mr. Egan, who was the owner of a lilrgc property in Elm- wood, was 63 years of age. He is survived by two sons, Andrew and Eugene in Boston, three sons. William, Frank and Cyril. and one daughter Mary, all living at home. There arc also two sisters, Sarah and Maggie, both living in the Un- ited States. and one sister. Mrs. James Morgan residing at Bayfleid street in this city. His wife prede- ceased hlm, she having died a year ago last summer.

To the bereaved relatives, the Guardian extends sincere sympathy.

lial. Curley was left there, and the deceased and Doucettc walked to- gether across the jail square to the residence of Doucettes sister, a

ford Street. for the purpose of get- ting a drink.

When they got there, he stated. the house was in darkness, and they were unable to enter. The two then continued for a short distance going west on Richmond toward the water front. Mr. Egan complained of feel- ing unwell, and leaned against the fence. Doucette went in search of Curley, but could not find him, so he returned to where he had left Egan. but the latter had disappear- ed.

This statement is corroborated by a woman, Mrs. Norris, living at No. 7 Richmond Street who saw the buy and the man go down the street to- gether. She saw the boy returning alone, and then a few minutes aft- erwards, she saw a person whom she took to be the man that she had seen with the boy going east on Richmond Street, away from the waterfront.
