Hagen of Gas Boat Giffen ~tostebife-on Saturday Afternoon. rer The drowning of a Norwegian fisherman named John B. Hagen was reported at the Provincial police office this morning by his partner, Andrew Garton. The drowning occurred on Pitt Island on Saturday afternoon last when the deceased fell through the ice of a lagoon which he had at- tempted to cross instead of walk- ing around. Garton and Hagen, who jointly owned the salmon fishing boat Giffen, were tied up at Union Pass to the south of Pitt Island. They went ashore on Saturday after- noon to take a walk, about 4:30, but before returning the two men separated, Garton proceeding at once to the beach. After a while he began to wonder what was de- Jaying Hagen, so a search was instituted. He was easily traced as the ice of the lagoon had bro- ken through under his feet from the shore and had gone to pieces when it got deeper till there was a large hole where the unfortu- nate man had drowned. His ac- tion in continuing with the ice breaking under him seems very strange. Hagen was-33 years old and. came from Regina, Sask. His body has not yet been recovered. The drowning was reported to the police by Andrew Garton. B.C. STUDENT DIES AT OXFORD Lieut. E. W. Berry, Graduate of B. C. University, Sucoumbs to Heart Failure. (Special by G.T.P. Teregraphs.)
