-Brint and Warren Huff, broth
ers, aged twenty six and nineteen
years, respectively, we're drowned in
the Clarion river Friday afternoon
about 5 o'clock. They were taking a
boat ride on Raught's mill dam,
about four miles above Milestone, and
getting too near the breast of the
dam were carried over. Brint, the
older boy, could have saved himself
being an expert swimmer, but be
would not desert his brother, who
could not swim. He made an heroic
effort to save him, but the current
was swift and strong and before aid
from the shore could reach them they
both sank to the bottom. Their
bodies we're recovered next morning
clasped in each others arms.-Bliz'
