RAEBURN ROBINSON

Boy's Body Found

   Drifting down the Chenango river in a boat, Mason Aldrich and Harry Barnes Wednesday morning located the body of Raeburn Robinson about one mile from the place where the boy stumbled into the Canasawacta creek three weeks ago Monday.

   The body was located by Messrs. Aldrich and Barnes while rowing the boat along the bank of the main current when they first saw his feet and on closer observation discovered the object to be the body of the missing boy.  At this point the water is still and rather clear which probably led the two men to look downward in the direction where the body was located.

   Soon after finding the body Coroner Wilcox and the father, John Robinson, were notified. It was found that the body was well preserved.  The clothing worn by the boy was in good condition aside from the trousers which were slightly torn.
