Peter Spilsbury was found dead in the canal at Kent Green.
He was found floating in the canal by a man that had been walking towards Congleton between Thorley's Bridge and Baxter's Bridge. The man continued on a little and then told two men who were fishing what he had seen and they went back and the man divested himself of his clothes and went into the canal and fetched Peter Spilsbury's body out.
