Norfolk Virginian May 17, 1881
About 7 o’clock yesterday morning, the body of Henry Callis, a white man aged 
about 40 and residing with his family at No. 52 Water street, opposite the Cotton 
Exchange, was found floating in the river and was conveyed to the wharf of Messrs. 
Jones, Lee & Co. By order of acting coroner, Justice T. P. Warren, a jury 
consisting of Messrs. W. L. Brown, C. E. Brinkley, John Burke, Joseph Small, John 
C. James and Baker Ward, was empanelled and a verdict of accidental drowning was 
rendered. Mr. Callis was last seen alive on Saturday afternoon, and as he was then 
thought to be intoxicated, it is probable that he may have fallen overboard in 
that condition. His body was given into the charge of his friends.
