The Inquest. The coroner had the body of Captain Joseph St. Julian, who was drowned in the canal near Romeo Tuesday evening, remarked to the undertaking establishment of Chamberlin & Davis, in Lockort, and __ inquest held. The fury rendered the following verdict: "We find that Joseph St. Julian came to his death accidentally falling off from the boat Montauk, and drowning in the Illinois & Michigan canal, and that we attach no blame to any one. Some persons suggested that he must have been intoxicated at the time but Wiliam Milne of the canal office, who gave him his clearance papers less than two hours before, said there was no evidence that he had been drinking at all then, and did not believe that drink had anything to do with it." Deceased was one of the oldest canal men in the state, having followed it for thirty-five years. The Joliet Republican & Sun, Friday, May 24, 1889, p5
