LIZZIE MAGILEWSKY
The search for the body of Lizzie Magilewsky haveing been abandoned by Sheriff 
Johnson and Captain Stevens of the life saving station it is not probably that 
the remains of the unfortunate girl will ever by recovered.

The drifting sands and the ever changing current have either covered up the 
body, or carried it over the bar formed in the channel below the sunken tug, 
Sweet Bros.  In a conversation with Sheriff Johnson, the official expressed 
the opinion that the body would probably never be recovered, and that further 
search was practially useless.

Loath to give up the quest and impelled by the desire to recover the remains, 
and turn the body over to the distracted mother, Sheriff Johnson and Captain 
Stevens have used every available means to accomplish success in their 
efforts, but they were forced to give up the task.

With the passing of Lizzie Magilewsky, a young life whose ambition encouraged 
her to do things, and whose attractive appearance probably led her downfall, 
there is crowded into the seventeen years of her short life, a history, 
especially in the past two years, of sorrow, brooding and care.  Her career 
was one of disapointment and her suicide an example of the follies of a 
wayward live.
