A Sad Drowning Accident in Palermo.

Last Thursday evening North Palermo
was shocked by the sad news of the drown
ing of Walter G. Norton in the Bowler pond
He was % years of age and was son of
Henry and Mary Norton. He was teaching
school in district No 3, having taught but
four days. He had told his scholars to bring
their Bibles the next day that they might
read a chapter each morning and recite the
Lords prayer in concert. After school he
bade his scholars kind good night, went
home and ate his supper as usual and then
went to the pond to skate with some of his
scholars. He skated into hole which was
but thinly frozen over, his skates cut
through and he plunged out of sight. The
alarm was given and Briggs Turner ran to
the spot with ladder. Norman Belden
also got in at the same place aud Mr.. Turner
drew him out on the ladder. Then with an
apple pole he hooked Walter out after he
had been in the water about twenty min
utes. His face was badly bruised and bleed
ing, having been cut by the ice in his fall
He did not rise to the surface after going
down, either on account of his being badly
hurt or because kept down by the ice. 1t
was sad scene when he was taken home
His mother and brother wept and could not
be comforted, and his sister May knelt by
his side with tears coursing down her
cheeks begging her brother to speak.
Some of the scholars met at the school house
the next day for school and on learning of
Walters death wept bitterly, as one said
because we loved him so much. He was
fine young man, beloved by all He leaves a
mother, four brothers and three sisters to
mourn their loss. Eighteen years ago from
the same day his Oldest brother was drown
ed. The funeral services were held last
Sunday at one o'clock at the house, conduct
| ed by Samuel Marden sermon by Alfred
Jones of China. The bearers were Fred
| Spratt, Chesman Spratt, Norman Belden
and Clarence Worthing. The interment was
| in the Smith cemetery.
| The deceased was member of the Y P
| S. G. E. of Washington, Me-, and member
| of the Good Templar Lodge at Branch Mills.
He was fitting himself for life of useful
ness, having marked abilities and good
| education He had attended several terms
of school at Augusta and was student of
the Pennington Normal school. The be-
| reaved family have the sympathy of large
| circle of friends. Allen Goodwin.
