Clancy, of JNausori, has been drowned while bathing", supposed from cramp, Se\ eral went to his rescue. Noah Benstead jumped in and tried to catch him by the hair, but it was too short to grip, a bad fashion for bathers : another, Claney seized by the waist and pulled him under water any he was forced, in self preservation, to «omke him otf. Captain Morton, judging the distance the body would drift before settling, directed a search and at the second dive the body was recovered.
