A gloom was cast over the city yes
terdsy afternoon by the announcement
that the sad intelligence had been re-
oeived here of the drowning at Raleigh
Springs of Frank Coffman, the popular
druggist, of the firm of Hoffman & Coff-
man.
A telegram, dated st Harrisonburg, to
r. f. Hoffman from Earnest Strayer, 8
cousin OF Mr.. Coflman's, whi,h was re-
ceived Yesterday afternoon at o'clock,
stated: Frank Coffman was drowned
at Raleigh Springs to-day. Body not
yet recovered. Will write particulars"
Later in the day another message was
wired from Herbert Coffman, a brother
OF the deceased, substantiating the first
report and asking that Mrs Coffman
come to Harrison6urg at once, but not
giving any particulars.
Mr.. Cotfman left Roanoke on the mid
day train Sunday for Harrisouburg, his
old home, to visit his brothers and WAS
TO have returned in few DAYS.
Raleigh Springs is a popular watering
place in Shenandoah county, eight
miles frota Harrisonburg, on the Shen-
andoah river.
1t is supposed that Mr.. Coffmau at.
tempted to ride or drive across the
Shenandoah river, which is greatly
swollen by the recent rains, and was
washed down and drowned.
Mrs Coff ar, he hear;- broken widow;
DR.. S. Il. Jones and wife, Mrs Coli mans
sister, and K. e. Hoffman, the unfor-
tunate gentlemans partner in business,

ID .rrisonburg. When the BODY is re-
covered the funeral and intermant will
probably be held at Harrisouhurr, as
MIR. Cotfman's parents are buried there
