SHARP, The Authorities Trying to Ascertain it the Missing Casualties Officer Has Really Been Prowned. The search for the body of Major WwW. J. Sharp was renewed yester- day, under the direction of Lieut. Askwith and Lieut. Martin, of the Canadian Engineers. Members of the military police dragged with grap- pling irons but failed to locate the body. Dynamite was then einployed and twenty-six charges were set off with the hope of causing the body to rise to the surface of the water, but without result. A strong east wind was blowing on the morning of Sat- urday last and if the beady floated it would have gone toward the sunken hull of a vessel near the shore. A hedvy charge of dynamite was used here and the boat was. raised above the water. Those experienced in the use of dynamite in the water say that the concussion would invariably raise a body. Lieut. Askwith said: "We are do- ing our best to ascer in whether or not Major Sharp's boy is in the wa- ter, and we have made a thorough gearch in the water for a consider- able distance around the spot where the clothing was found." The military police are rendering assistance in the solution of the mys- tery and a special agent is also em- ployed. The work will be carried on unremittingly and every. clue will be traced in an effort to account for Major Sharp's disappearance, Major W. J. S. Sharp was a native of Dundee, Scotland. For five years before he enlisted to go overseas with the 21st Battalion, he was em- ployed in the Timber and Grazing Branch of the Department of Inter- for, Ottawa. He was born April 26th, 1886, and came to Canada about ten years ago. APPOI NTED EXAMINER Of Kingston District For Board of Pension Commissioners. LIBUT.-COL, W. G. ANGLIN Lieut.<Col. W. G.
