Harper, Maryland County– The skeleton of an unknown person was reportedly discovered on early Monday morning on August 9, 2021 by local marketers of Glogbadeh while on their way to Harper to sell their local produce.

The alarm from the marketers drew a huge crowd of onlookers comprising mainly residents of Harper City on the scene where the unidentified skeleton was washed ashore by the Atlantic Ocean, between Glogbadeh and Harper High way, close to Lake Shepherd and the ocean.

It can recalled that Boye Quire, 47, and others were returning from a fishing trip on July 19, 2021 at about 5:30AM when their canoe capsized. His body has not been seen since the incident. Some of his relatives and family members who were on the scene were crying bitterly, calling his name.

Some of the survivors who spoke with our Maryland County correspondent said the canoe capsized after the 15-horse power engine malfunctioned.

The machine reportedly collided with a rock at the shores of the port of Harper in Maryland County.

Meanwhile the Crime Service Division of the Maryland County Police detachment has ordered the fishing community to bury the skeleton.
