Drowned At Whitmore

A fatality occurred at Whitmore Lake Monday that served toi mar the pleasures of those who had gone there to spend the Fourth. There are so many ccnilicting stories about the sad affair that just how it happened eannot be told with accuracy. The story to which the most credence is to be given is that young Bailey, the 13 years oíd son of Supervisor M. F. Bailey, of Salem, was out in a sail boat in company with a man and two other boys. The boys4 either got to scuffling or a sudden gust of wind capsized the boat and it. overturned. The man got ho!d of two of the boys and held them on the boai, but was unable to catch hold of Bailey for fear the other boys might be washfc.l over into the lake again. Bailey could not swim and sank to the bottom. Searching parlies hunted for the body all night but it was not recovered until Tuesday, when Undertaker Martin was summoned to take charge of the remains.
