Cambridge Qsanti County, Press, March
13: A party of young people, mostly la
dies, from Spencer Brook, started to attend
a meeting last Moncay in Wyanette, and on
crossing Rum river the ice gave way and the
whole party, wagon and all, went down.
Fortunately the water was not deep enough
to take the wagon under the ice, but the
whole party were completely drenched and
chilled, SO much so that when the last ones
were got out they could hardly stand. 1t
was a narrow escape.

Chaska Valley Herald, March 20: The
body of Louis Schmidt, son of Matthias
Schmidt, of this city, who ran away from
home last November, an account OF which
WAS published in the Herald at the time,
was found in the Minnesota river, on the
Scott county side, midway between this place
and Carver, last Sunday afternoon, by some
boys. He must have thrown himself into
the river this side OF Carver, and his body
arose to the surface of the water just as the
river froze over, and if the body hadn't been
found before the breaking up of the river,
the chances are that it would have been
ground to pieces by the floating ice. he
was buried Oh, Tuesday.
