There
was
no
further
word
up
to
this
afternoon
as
to
the
fate
of
Capt.
Alfred
Swanson
and
Hans'
Berquist,
both
veteran
navigators
of
northern
waters,
whose
gas-boat
Myfanwy
and
dinghy
were
found
adrift
in
the
stormswept
waters
of
Chatham
Sound
north
of
Dundas
Island
on
Sunday
by
the
Port
Simpson
fish
packer
Taplow
II
and
for
whose
safety
fears
are
entertained.
The
provincial
police
cruiser
P.
M.
L.

left
here
yesterday
afternoon
to
conduct
a
search
for
the
two
men
and
had
not
returned
up
to
this
afternoon
nor
had
further
word
been
received
from
her.
Neither
had
any
further
word
been
received
from
other
sources.
It
was
too
rough
on
Sunday
for
the
Taplow
II
to
pick
up
the
Myfanwy
so
it
was
left
adrift
after
it
was
ascertained
that
no
one
was
on
board.
The
only
hope
for
Swanson
and
Berquist
appears
to
be
that
they
may
be
marooned
on
Zayas
Island
which
they
were
believed
to
have
been
visiting.
Another
theory
is
that
the
Myfanwy
might
have
had
engine
trouble
and
that
one
of
the
two
men
might
have
gone
over
top
outside
to
go
to
the
engine
room
and
slipped
overboard
in
a
rough
sea,
the
other
man
taking
to
the
dinghy
in
an
effort
to
rescue
him.
