Ralph May

 

Kentucky Post, Saturday, 10 July 1915, page 1

Mystery surrounds the finding of a pair of boys trousers Friday afternoon near the spot where Ralph May, 8, stepson of Allie Gasdorf, of Newport, accidentally drowned. It may mean the drowing of another boy, as May was completely dressed when his body was recovered.

Young May, with several companions was standing on the river bank near Taylor Mill Bottoms, when the bank caved in, throwing him into the Ohio River. Before aid could be given the youth disappeared. Charles Theis recovered the body. Police are now awaiting the report of another missing boy.
