wreckage of John F Kennedy Jnr's plane has been located, with his body still aboard. "They've got the fuselage and John Kennedy's in it," said a government source. The wreckage of the single engine Piper Saratoga plane was reportedly found during the night in about 100 feet (30 metres) of water. There was no immediate word about whether the women's bodies had been located. The discovery came after US Navy and Coast Guard spent Tuesday night scouring a site 7.5 miles (12 kilometers) southwest of Martha's Vineyard, Massachusetts. Coast Guard Rear Admiral Richard Larrabee, who was overseeing the search, cancelled a round of TV interviews to go to the USS Grasp, the ship where the wreckage will be deposited after being raised from the ocean floor.

There is a modern part, which took all our garrison, women, children, stores, and everything else, with plenty of room over. But the modern part is nothing like the size of the old quarter, where nobody goes, and which is given over to the scorpions and the centipedes. It is all full of great deserted halls, and winding passages, and long corridors twisting in and out, so that it is easy enough for folk to get lost in it. For this reason it was seldom that anyone went into it, though now and again a party with torches might go exploring.
"The river washes along the front of the old fort, and so protects it, but on the sides and behind there are many doors, and these had to be guarded, of course, in the old quarter as well as in that which was actually held by our troops. We were short-handed, with hardly men enough to man the angles of the building and to serve the guns. It was impossible for us, therefore, to station a strong guard at every one of the innumerable gates. What we did was to organize a central guardhouse in the middle of the fort, and to leave each gate under the
