Eldon Mountain who lives on the shore said that he was standing on the shore about the middle of the afternoon when he heard a shout as someone crying for help and looked out over the bay and noticed a motor boat mar the point about a mile and a quar- ter from the shore going round and round in the heavy seas ap- parently empty. He called for as- sistance and several men went out with him. When they neared the boat they found that it was empty but the engine was running.

The men recognized it as Everett Burt's boat and remembered that lie had gone out in the afternoon to look after his herring nets. He was a blacksmith by trade but fished lobsters in his spare ‘time. He was a very big man, weighing round 200 pounds. and it is thought that he was leaning over the side of the boat and got tangled up in a rope and with tho heavy sea. on he was dragged over- board. The scene of the accident was Just inside the bar and con- sidered by the fishermen a very dangerous place.

Three years ago three men were drowned about the spot and were never found. Parties were search- ing until dark but so far the body has not been located. The victim of the accident was 35 years of

Tan. The boat went ashore at the point under its own power and was taken off by the fishermen.
