Sad Case Of Drowning

Walter and Samuel Johnson, aged regpectively 26 and 17 yearg, went in swimming at about five o'clock, a week ago last evening. just above the Ann Arbor brick and tile works. The went with a boat and were accompanied by their dog. Not long afterwards, three little boys went down to the river and saw the dog and the clothes belonging to the young men, but took no particular notice oftheaa, asthey supposed the owners to be across the river. In the early afternoon of Thursday, Mr. Frank was rowing up the river. and he also noticed the clothes and the faithful dog, but thought nothing of the circumetance at the time. Two hours afterwards, however, as he returned and saw things just as they we'e before, bis suspicions were aroused and he began to search for the boys. He soon found the body of Wlter lyiiifr in the deep water, and that of Samut-1 floating on the surface near the shore. Much curiosity has been excited aa to just bow the accident occurred, but, of course, nothing deSnite can ever be ascertained. The boys had f rom $50 to $100 on their clothee, Wednesday afternoon, none of which has been found, although a watch nnd gold ring were found untouched. The funeral of the young men took place on Saturday last, the services beins; conducted by Rev. Henry Tatlock. The case is a particulnrly sad one, inasmuch ss the Johnson boys were the only surviving sons of a widowed niother.
