Another Meriden Drowning Case.
Drowned fla Black POnd-Recovery O

 Drowned fla Black POnd-Recovery of
 the Body.
 James Waterman, 8 young man of eigh- teen years, son of A. R. Waterman, of Meri- den, went in bathing Sunday afternoon, in company with four or five others, in Black pond in the town. They had boat among them which they were turning over and di- wing under. Young Waterman could not swim, but manageable keep up by holding on to the boat, but finally in some way the boat slipped away from him, and he caught one of his companions around the neck. The lat ter, not knowing that Waterman was unable to swim, cast him off to shirk for himself and to avoid, as he supposed, getting ducked by Waterman. Waterman sank, but the others thought it was only in sport and kept on with their amusement as before. The unfor- tunate young man did not rise again, and his companions set to work diving for him, but were unsuccessful after many efforts, and they searched and dragged the neighborhood for three hours without avail. They think that Waterman must have got hit by the boat and rendered faint, and that that caused him to grasp his companion. The body was found at last by Mir. Harvey Perkins, who touched it on the bottom with a long pole after many efforts, and then dove for it, bringing it up. The affair, following so soon after the drowning of young Lewis, was spe- cially sorrowful. The deceased worked for his father, driving milk team. He was athletic and healthy, faithful son and a great help on the farm. The place of the drowning is near the farm, dreary, forsa- ken looking spot in deep notch between the mountains, and is called Black pond from the dark sombre hue of the waters.
