Oliver Martin's Death is Almost Certain Now
Work of Rescue is Given Up

It is now almost a certainty that Oliver S. Martin of Waterloo, traveller for the Hibner Furniture Co., of Berlin, lost his life in the terrible railway wreck at Webbwood, on the C. P. R., at the bridge over the Spanish river.

Ever since the news of the catastrophe was flashing on the wire, first, friends here have been busy endeavoring to get information. It was extremely difficult to do so. But on Monday afternoon a message was received by his wife at Waterloo, stating that some of his baggage had been found among the wreckage. News was also received that he had called on customers at Sudbury, but had not reached the Soo, where he was next due.

These circumstances all caused grave anxiety and a despatch from Sudbury seems to confirm the fears that he has been lost. A hat, bearing the initials O. S. M., and the dealers name, John Ritzer of Waterloo, is certain to be that of the missing man, and is conclusive evidence that he was a passenger on the ill-fated train. The had was found by divers, but the body has not been recovered.

The Canadian Pacific officials come in for a littel share of indignation on the part of the friends and relatives of the victims. Even as yet, it is stated, friends cannot find anything about the disposal of the remains of their loved ones.

It is doubtful whether the body will ever be recovered as the work of recovering the bodies of the victims of Friday's disaster stopped last night and it is altogether likely that the remaining bodies in the first-class couch slipped into the river and were carried away by the current when the attempt was made to raise the car further up the bank. It is reported that seven were lost when the car broke and buckled. The remainder of the second-class car is not out of the river, and may still contain a number of bodies.

The late Mr. Martin was about 42 years of age, and is survived by a widow, one son about sixteen years old and an adopted daughter. Mrs. Elisha Schiedel of Port Elgin, is a sister.

Mr. Martin was a member of the Waterloo Evangelical church and some years ago was an active member of the Waterloo Broom and Brush Company.
