ON Thursday last as Mr. Joseph Bicheno„ aged
nineteen, the second -son of the Reiff. James Bicheno,
of Newbury, was bathing in the'River j(entict, near
that town) either from a failure of his strength, or
from some other cause, he suddenly sunk m deep
water; and although three other. yohng'men were -
with him, they could yield him no assistance, and
he was unfortunately drowned.

youth of this town, the same morning, had nbt a
young man, who was near him, and saw his danger,
plunged into his assistance.
