On Saturday morning about five, while a fisherman was passing the slip at the north end of Port Henry Harbour, Peterhead, he observed the body of a man lying on the rocks. The body was conveyed to the deadhouse, and identified as that of Andrew Pennant, joiner, Cairntrodlie. Deceased was last seen about nine on Friday night, and it is supposed he had fallen over the side of the quay in the dark and fractured his skull. Deceased was over sixty years of age, and unmarried.
