SAD CASE OF DRowNINC.-We are
panied to chronicle, this week, the death
by drowning, last Monday afternoon, of
frankie Merrill, aged about 10 years. a lit
tie son of Mr.. Il. q. Merrill, highly re-
Spected citizen Of this city. The little fell
low with a number of his companions
were up at the Little Manitowoe river in
bathing, and the rest of the boys had come
out of the water and commenced dressing,
when one of their number enquired,
where is frankie Merrill-fIere are his
clothes p and Immediately all faces We're
turned to the river, but poor frankie was
nowhere to be seen. Alarm was brought
to the city as soon Is possible, and men
FASTENED to the spot and commenced drag
riug the river for the body, which was
brought to the surface about . clock and
conveyed to the residence of the grief
stricken parents The little fellow could

could utter a cry for help. The funeral
took place on Tuesday afternoon, and was
attended by a large cancoursc Of sympa-
thising friends. We tender the afflicted
family our most heartfelt sympathy in
tins their sad bereavement.
