Remains of James Stevenson Brought to Douglas for Burial

The body of James Stevenson, who drowned near Ketchikan last Tuesday, was brought to Douglas on the Queen for burial. His sister Mrs. Leggett and nieces accompanied the remains as funeral arrangements await arrival of Mr. and Mrs. D. Leggett on the Princess Alice from Vancouver. An inquiry was held in Ketchikan. Stevenson, a cheerful man, was aboard the cannery tender Chomley when it struck a rock in Skookum Chuck, dragging him overboard and eluding rescue after an eddy pulled him beneath the surface.
