Boy Drowned.

On Friday morning Green
Hill, Lee and John Randle, all
colored, after hoeing cotton in
the field until about II o'clock,
concluded to go to the creek
and take a good battle before
going to dinner. After SWIM
ming around for some time in
a pool about I5x2o feet, Lee
suddenly sank, land before any
assistance could reach him was
drowned. The other two boys,
Green Hill and John Randle
were aged respectively s and II
years, hence were not able to
render the necessary assistance
to Lee, who was about IS years
of age. The water is said to be
about II or IS feet deep in the
pool in which he was drowned.
1t is believed that Lee was seiz-
ed with cramps, as under ordi-
nary circumstances he could not
have drowned in so small a
pool. The deceased is a son of
Will Randle, a worthy colored
man, living near PALMS store,
on Williams creek. A colored
man named Howard M; hell
recovered the body by diving
for it.
Justice Hackworth will go
out and hold an inquest over
the remains this morning.

Street has had n straw-cutter standing in
front of his store for some days past.
Yesterday afternoon two boys discovered
it and had considerable sport feeding pa
pcrs under the knife.
They were still at work, one at the
wheel, the other feeding all the old pa
pcrs he could find, when along came
three Canada Indians with something
less than thousand baskets hitched to
them. They were evidently father,
mother and son, and when they saw the
straw-cutter at work they came TO n halt
and exhibited great curiosity to know
how the thing chewed up paper in that

The dense fog in London recently
has caused the deaths of number of
persons. A coroner's inquest in the case
of wheelwright named James Smith
showed that the fog had fastened his
death very materially, developing bron-
chitis to an alarming extent. The fog
brought on etfusion of the brain in the
case of Alice Wright, which caused her
death, while the bronchial pneumonia
which carried off little boy named Pep
per was ascribed by the attending physi-
clan to the poison of the fog.-M Y.
