DISTRESSING CASUALTY. event has
transpired in this community since the
massacre of white settlers by the In
dians, which produced such a shock as
the untimely death of Mrs. Herod Wells
and her infant child. The circumstan
stances, as far as we are able to gather
them, were as follows: Mr.. Wells, his
wife, three children and Miss Smith,
were out upon the bay in small sail
boat, when by some means the boat
capsized. Mr.. Wells seized his two
older children and started for the shore,
leaving his wife clinging to the boat with
her baby. The child became detached
from the mother soon after and in her
efforts to save it she let go of the boat
and both were drowned. Some Indians
witnessed the accident from the shore
and in canoes fastened to the rescue in
the shortest possible time. They sue
ceeded in saving Mr.. Wells and the two
children, Miss Smith, who clung to the
boat. and picked up the body of the i'll
FAINT, which was dead when found. The
body Of Mrs. Wells was not recovered
until three o'clock in the morning.
nearly fifteen hours after the accident.
Mr.. and Mrs. Wells we're old settlers
and highly esteemed in this community,
and he has the warmest sympathies of
all who know him in this his sad af1ic-
ton,
