Lighter Young Man Had in Tow Is
Picked Up, but He Is Believed
to Have Drowned.
HRL NSWIOK, Aur. 30.—Cecil Mo-
IJougal, a young white man, 21 years
old, who left Brunswick two weeks
ago in a launch for Jacksonville, has
never reached his destination, while
a lighter which he was towing has
been picked up at sea, and it is'fear-
ed the young man has lost his life
The lighter McDougal had in tow
was hauling the furniture of the
family from Jekyl Island, where his
parents lived, to the Florida metropo-
lis. After he failed to arrive at his
destination in the required time, his
parents began an investigation, but
found no trace of him. Several days
ago the lighter he was towing was
picked up at sea and towed into Fer-
nandina.
It is the belief here that the young
man met a squall during the windy
days of the past week and that some
accident happened to the launch.
The fact that the lighter loaded
with furniture was picked up at sea
seems to indicate that he was either
lost or is now floating aimlessly far
from shore.

SAVANNAH. Aug. 80.—The War
Department is engaged in a unique
occupation at Fort Screven. It is
moving the buildings from an aban
doned fort to the Tybee Island reser
vation and setting them up again.
The abandonment of Fort Fremont,
in South Carolina, Is actively under
way. The movement of the Govern
ment buildings from one reservation
to another across several miles of
water and then setting them up again
in an Interesting process.
As long ago as March, 1911. a small
detachment. In charge of a sergeant,
was sent to Fort Fremont to look
after the post until the department
decided to abandon it entirely. When
this order was received Colonel Phil
lips. then at Fort Screven, withdrew
the detachment, and the post was put.
in charge of the quartermaster’s de
partment, who placed a civilian care
taker in charge.
Things went along under hie care
until it could be decided what to do
with the building* and guns, which
latter consisted of two 10-inch dis
appearing. and three 4.7 rapid-flre
guns. There were also a large num
ber of mines to protect the mouth of
Beaufort River, Port Royal Navy
Yard and Port Royal Sound. It was
finally decided to transfer as much
stuff to Fort Screven as could possi
bly be moved.
The post conHsted of six sets of
officers’ quarters, largo quarters for
enlisted men. mess hall, quartermas
ter commissary and ordnance etore-
houses, several sets of quarters for
non-commi*sioned officers, a large
hospital, power plant, pumphouse and
several large buildings used for store
houses.
Many of these buildings were com
paratively new. A scheme was put
on foot to float the buildings to Fort
Screven with scows and the steamer
Jackson. It wan finally decided to
tear the buildings down and rebuild
them again. An an hitect waft sent to
Fort Screven to superintend the work.
As soon as a building i* demolished
the steamer Jackson is sent over to
get the material and transport it to
Fort Screven.
The Fort Screven reservation cov
ers over 270 acres. There are now lOo
buildings on the reservation, hardly
enough to cover the need* of post
personnel.
One small building will be left at
Fort Fremont for the caretaker to
live In. and thi* will probably be the
only marker on the site of the Old
fort, once a scene of great military
activity.
