HIS
BODY
IS
FOUND
Arthur
Hill
Escapes
Death
By
Drowning
to
Die
of
Exposure
on
Lonely
Islet
The
story
of
how
Arthur
L.
Hill.
Kitkatla
native,
cheated
death
at
sea
by
drifting
almost
100
miles
In
a
disabled
gull
net
boat
In
wind-whipped
Hecate
Strait
at
the
beginning
of
the
year,
only
to
die
of
exposure
on
an
unhablted
island,
was
brought
to
the
city
by
members
of
the
B.C.
police
marine
detachment
Sunday
night.
The
police
brought
back
Hill's
body
from
Zayas
Island
at
the,
northwestern
tip
of
the
Dun-:
das
group,
where
It
had
been
discovered
on
Saturday
by
Andrew
Talt,
of
Port
Simpson.
Hill
left
Kitkatla
on
December
28
in
the
26-foot
B.C.
Packers
boat
"J-S."
to
do
some
trapping
on
nearby
Stephens
Island
and
was
not
heard
from
again.
Police
believe
that
Hill
experi
enced
engine
trouble
with
his
boat
shortly
after
he
had
entered
Hecate
Strait
after
leaving
Kit
katla
Inlet
on
the
south
aide
of
Porcherlsland
and
drifted
through
the
rough
seas
that
pounded
the
coast
early
In
January,
until
his
boat
was
thrown
up
on
the
btaetrat
Zayas
Iifland:
At
that
time
of
year
boats
rarely
pass
close
to
the
Island,
which
would
explain
his
not
having
been
discovered
sooner.
When
anxiety
over
the
63-year-old
man's
disappearance
was
felt
by
his
sons,
patrol
boats
of
the
Royal
Canadian
Navy
and
the
B.C.
Police
scoured
the
more
likely
areas
In
search
of
him.
The
likelihood
of
so
small
a
boat
drifting
100
miles
in
the
ex
tremely
heavy
seas
that
prevailed
at
that
time
was
hardly
considered.
On
Saturday
Andrew
Talt,
of
Port
Simpson,
passing
the
Island,
,
saw
the
wTecked
boat
high
on
the
beach.
He
Investigated
and
discovered
Hill's
body.
On
his
return
to
Port
Simpson
he
phoned
the
B.C.
Police
district
office
here,
and
the
P.M.L.
15
was
dispatched
Immediately
to
bring
In
the
body.
A
reward
of

was
posted
In'
January
by
Norman
Lewis,
one
of
the
missing
man's
sons,
for
information
regarding
hU
fate.
A
