laid there to rest Mr Hyde asj went along the shore on foot About 10 oclock at night Supt Riter put a special train at the disposal dis-posal of some friends and they left this city Reaching the lake went along the shore atter reach iiig Black Rock with lanterns The search was fruitless no trace whatever what-ever being found of the u fortunate fortu-nate man Mr Hyde stattd that the search along the shore was useless use-less as the wind would carry him out Mr Hyde give it as his opinIon opin-ion that the body assuming Farmer to be drowned would be carried out at the rate of about two miles an hour and as the wind blew steadily to the west until about 12 odock and then shifted to the north he believed the body w uld be found if at all about five miles out from the shorp in a direction nearly opposite op-posite from Black Rock On Monday nirniug several persons per-sons wanted row boats sent out but Mr Hyde said he could not let them go as there would be danger especially es-pecially from the squalls that frequently fre-quently come up without warnn Those at Gdtfield however got a couple of boats to go out and a reward re-ward of 5i was offered the men if thpy found the bojy At
