Tuesday,, Versal King started for Lowell,

there during the winter. The evening be-
fore he started about 30 of his friends met
at his home to give a farewell visit; re-
freshments were served after which the
company departed wishing him success i'm
his new work.
S. p. Pinney and family are moving TO
Passumpsic where he has purchased store,
and intends to engage i'm the mercantile
| business. Mr.. Pinney has been a life long
resident of Greensboro and lis highly re-
spected here. We are sorry to lose them
from our society and wish them success i'm
their new enterprise.
None but the camperers, residents OF
Greensboro and immediate vicinity can
realize the gloom the accident at the lake
|
community. Diligent search has been
made to recover the bodies but all to no
avail. The citizens ofthe town have worked
with will and have seemingly exhausted
all devices; dragging the lake from shore
to shore. Many wild stories have been
afioat concerning the mysterious disap-
pearance of the two, but as far at we know
there is no cause. 1t is claimed by some
the water is so deep the bodies lmay never
rise, if so we may never know where their
bodies rest until "the waters give up their
dead and the wide armament is rolled
up like a SCROLL" Much sympathy is felt
for the parents of both; it is with reluc-
| lance they leave the scene of so sad a trag-
edy. Whether they are ever found or not,
no one will ever know the cause of the
loss of two young useful lives on that
beautiful moonlight night.
