grounds yesterday afternoon. There
were about fifteen hundred persons in at

SAD ACCIDENT.


NORTH THETFoRD, VT. Sept 4.
Drs. A. O. Dickey and ]. C. Marshall of
LYME, were both drowned in the lake at Post
Mills village last evening. They were driv-
ing in covered buggy, with pair of horses
along the shore, when the horses took fright,
ran into the water, and overturned the car
rage. 1t was within sight of the Lake
House where the accident occurred. Help
was given at once. The bodies were recov-
cred in few minutes, but NOT until life was
extinct. DIR. Dickey was 63 years of age.
and had no family. DIR. Marshall was about
35 wears of age. He leaves a widow, but no
children.
LArER-The body of John C. Marshall,
NJ. D., of Lyme, who was with DR.. A. c.
Dickey of Worcester. Mass. drowned
in Fairlee Lake, Post Mills, VT, yesterday
afternoon, has been recovered. Although
the accident occurred in broad daylight.
within sight of ten or dozen houses, no one
saw them in the water, and the first intima-
ton of the trouble was the discovery. by a
man crossing the lake, of the horses feet
sticking out of the water. The road runs
alongside the lake, with no fence between
for a quarter of a mile. The most of the
wav the water is very shallow, but at one
point the bank shelves off abruptly into deep
water. 1t is supposed that they wishing to
water their horses, and not knowing of the
deep hole, drove deliberately in at this point.
DIR. Dickey was for many years resident OF
Lyme. DIR. Marshall graduated from Dart
mouth medical school in the class of ~. He
will be buried tomorrow with Masonic
honors.

The Last Days Meeting-An Immense
Crowd.

Especial to the Kennebec Journal
CAMP GROUND, Sept. 4.
Notwithstanding the number of people
present yesterday, it was a most orderly day.
In the afternoon Rev. Mr.. Simons of South
Paris, preached to the largest assemblage
which has gathered on the grounds during
this series of meetings. This morning the
only meeting held was at the Bowdoinham
chapel, the rain preventing the proposed
meeting at the stand. People are now rapidly
scattering to their homes, and Tuesday
night will find but few families remaining.
In summing up the results of the meetings
the managers speak of them as having been
moderately successful. 1t is evident that
the extreme dusty condition of the grounds
and highways generally, has kept many
away; still the attendance has been good,
although not as great as in some preceding
years. The association propose during the
coming year to make some improvements
about the grounds. which will add to the
convenience and comfort of those who come
here ~ brief season. 1t is probable that
in the not remote future a more commodious
boarding house will be erected, better adapt
ed to the needs of such as desire TO be free
from ordinary household cares while here.
Other improvements are in contemplation
which, when completed, will add to the
beauties of this most beautiful grove.
