pond, was swept from it's foundation and
demolished, its timbers being scattered
over quite a wide area of intervale, ana
the occupants borne to their death.
Searching parties were organized and
for several days great many of the citi-
Zens of that town sought. in vain for
some trace of the unfortunate victims.
Some, of the clothing worn by them was
discovered, among the rest Mr.. Roberts

tanning $75. The cold weather that fol-

must thaw before the remains of the vie
time could be located.
A few days ago the remains of Mrs.
Roberts were discovered in rather a pc
culiar manner A lock of her hair pro-
truding through the ice at a point near
the meadow below the village, excited
the curiosity of a passerby and an inves-
tigation revealed the remains of the wo-
man imbedded in the ice.
Friday, Mr.. Roberts remains were
found located in the current of the
stream, where they had become anchor
ed in some way, and close to where Il
winter road had been located. In fact,
it was reported here that the road on the
ice had passed directly over the remains
of the unfortunate man.
