Squawitch an Indian being sworn states
I was fishing this morning with George Morris. We found a dead man’s body in the river a little below Douglass Island. The body was naked except boots and trousers held on by the boots. We made it first with a rope to our boat and brought it to town. I could not recognize the body. It is that of a chinaman.
