Show DENIES THAT SHARK ATE HIM Mr. Baldwin Positively Refutes Story of His Taking Off by Man-Eating Man-Eating Fish. Berkeley, Cal. George II. Baldwin positively denies that he was eaten by a shark, despite seemingly overwhelming over-whelming evidence to the contrary. Recently Re-cently a man-eating shark was killed off Catalina island, and when its interior in-terior was examined fragments of a man's coat were found, to which was attached a pin of the American Society of Civil Engineers, bearing Baldwin's name. His demise was announced in some newspapers and his wife began to receive scores of telegrams and letters let-ters of condolence. Mrs. Baldwin some months ago gave away one of Baldwin's Bald-win's old coats, from which she forgot to remove the pin. |
