The little girl showed evidence of a bad blow across the face and forehead, and I thought that possibly might be the cause of her death, and while I was working with her one of the men informed me that she had been floating and that the larger girl was found hanging on to her and I though it probable a blow on the head had killed her and the amount of air in the lungs kept her floating and that is why she kept afloat.
Q; - Did you have any conversation with the man?

Coming to the bridge we were coming where Mr Weir had not be accustomed. I told him "Better be careful for the draw is ahead." I saw the lights on the side of the bridge. That's all I know about it.
