I'm the water. but Fishless.

It was about the third hour when viii
liam r. Clark, the jeweler, and George
Winslow, son OF the builder. decided to
go after the toothsome fish. So, early
last week they collected together their
fishing tackle and hied themselves to the
Brandywine creek, below the City Mill,
and began forthwith to deposit their lug
gage in the boat which they had hired.
The luggage included a certain quantity
Of nutritious edibles, or words to that
effect; the weight of the whole outfit
was not given. Every thing being ready,
the lunch in place, and the basket for the
catch handy, the two fishermen boarded
the craft, cast of the painter and hoated
out into the stream.
The heavy rains of the week before
had swollen the BrandYwine and made 1t
8 raging, furious torrent. The great
quantity Of water dsshing over the
rocky bed of the stream formed into in
Vulnerable eddies The boat swung
around; they tried to control it and row
away from the danger, but alasl they
could not. The swirl of the angry
stream was bent on wetting them, and
its bent was satisfied.
The boat filed with water the men
with indignation, but it availed nothing.
The boat sank and the men with it.
They came to shore directly, carried
their luggage and moist lunch home and
have not been fishing since.
