FURTHER PARTICULARS
OF the Sad Death of Thomas Wiley, Drowned in Lake
Kampeska, S. D.. and Something of His Life

From the Watertown, S. D., Satur-
day News of the 28th inst, we take
the following account of the drowning
of Thomas Wiley we'll known to people
of Bowbells country and respected by
all: 49, 80,
Drowned while out fishing on Lake
Kampeska last Thursday evening,
Thomas Wiley, assistant postmaster of
this city. .... .-
Such was the news that was brought
to us last Thursday ev ming and cast a
deep shadow of gloom over the entire
city. Death comes to us all in some
way or another; but seldom does it come
so swiftly as it did to Thomas Wiley,
our beloved friend and fellow citizen.
Mr.. Arthur Ainsworsh was in the
boat with Mr.. Wiley when the accident
happened. Mr.. Ainsworth and Mr..
Wiley are old friends of many years
standing. -. 49,, Il:
When the two friends started out on
their fishing trip last Thursday after
noon about O'Clock they little thought
of the dreadful tragedy which was to
happen. There was not asshadow Of
premonition to foretell the sad event.
They chose a place for their operations
about half mile from the shore in the
direction Of the pumping station, oppo-
site the wire fence about midway be-
tween the Stoney Point and the pump
house. The water at this point is deep,
possibly as deep as anywhere in the
lake. Their sport concluded little
after seven in the evening. they made
preparations for the return to camp
Mr.. Ainsworth was sitting in the rear
end Of the boat, winding the lines and
arranging the poles. Mr.. Wiley was
in the front part Of the boat pulling up,
the anchor. He had hoisted the anchor
into the boat, and was standing up,
when he lost his balance and fell over
backward. He fell with his whole
weight on the side Of the boat, which.
Immediately capsized. precipitating
both Of its occupants into the water.
They both came to the surface ct.

upturned boat, and held on with great
difficulty g the boatswas rocking and

movements Of the two men, and the

tained a promise from her husband
that he would not stand up in the boat.
The funeral took place from the
Methodist church Sunday afternoon at
2:3O. The service was entirely in charge
of the Elks. The body of the church
was reserved for the Elks and their
ladies'. The church was crowded with
sympathizers and friends who came to
pay their last respects to the dead.
OBITUARY.
Thomas Wiley was born on the 10th
of Nov. 1862, in Detriot, Mich, where
his father was engaged in the mercan-
tile business. While Tom was but a
small boy the family moved to Chicago,
where his father carried on business as
a dry goods merchant. Here Tom lived
until he was II years old. He then
commenced working on the railroad,
his first job braking on what was then
called the Southern Minnesota railroad.
He was married in 1873, when 20 years
old, and the same week he was married
left the railroad and went on farm
where he stayed for three years. He
then moved to Glenville, Minn., and
started in buying grain. He was work
ing in this business until 1880, when he
obtained work with the Burlington
road (now incorporated with the Rock
Island system) and held various runs
with that company until 1887. He ran
the Rock Island passenger into this
city for two years, In '87, howeve.
MIR. Wiley tired of railroading and
bought the Manger farm, and spent
another four years farming He then
rented the farm and spent some time
visiting with his wife in Bowbells, N.
D. They returned to this city in Feb
ruary just seven years ago, and Mr..
Wiley took the position Of assistant
postmaster, and has held the position
ever since. AS an official, Mr.. Wiley
has always been very popular, and has
always been faithful to his duties and
the trust reposed in him.
Mr.. Wiley leaves a wife and five
children to mourn his loss: Mrs. Jennie
Gillard Of North Yakima, WASH, Mrs.
L. A.Spooner of Salmon, Idaho, Thomas
Moore Wiley Of Roseville, CAL, Mrs.L.
E. Hood of Patterson, N. D., and the
youngest Russie v. who is 10 years old.
None of them, with the exception of
Russie, owing to the distance from
home, was able to attend the funeral.
Mrs. Hood arrived Sunday evening to
visit here for short time.

roll of the waves. The boat was al
most completely submerged, and with
the weight of the two men clinging to
it, seemed to be on the point of sinking
to the bottom.
Fortunately help was near in the per-
son of Darrell Bancroft, the 9-year-old
son of w. F. Bancroft of this city.
Darrell happened to be near the scene
of the accident. He had seen the two
men fishing out in that portion of the
lake and had rowed out to them to ask
how the luck was going. Just preced-
ing the accident a conversation had
been carried on between the men and
the boy, and the boy was on his way
home and about Is rods from the place
where the boat was upset, when the
accident happened.
AS soon as the two men came to the
surface and obtained hold on the boat
they, began to call to the boy to come
and help them. He answered the call
for help and made the best speed he
could to the scene of the disaster.
And then occurs the saddest part of
the. story. Mr.. Wiley, either because
he was afraid the boat was sinking and
lost his head, or because he thought he
could make the approaching boat more
quickly. let go and struck out. He
seemed to be dazed and did not under4
stand. He could not swim, and dragged
down as he was by his heavy clothing,
he only struggled few yards and then
sank, never to rise again. When he
left the boat he did not make a start in
the; direction of the rescuing boat. but
in the. opposite direction. Paralyzed
with the dread of the situation, and
fatigued with the difficult effort to keep
afloat with the sinking boat. it's thought
he lost his head, became dazed and did
not know just what he was doing, be-
yond vague idea Of escaping from the
presene eanminent danger, never: think
ing id his sdazed condition Of mind. Of
the worse danger into which he was
falling.
A few seconds after Mr.. Wiley had
sunk after leaving the upturned boat,
Darrell Bancroft reached Mr. Ains-
worth, who was still clinging to his
hold. Here's the boat, =
were the words Of the rescuer. Mr..

Ainsworth seized the boat, but for a
while the boy did not seem willing to
let him get aboard, fearing that he
might upset the boat. The boy was
naturally excited by the terrible trage-
dy and feared lest the same fate should
happen to him. Mr.. Ainsworth, how
ever, assured him that he must keep
cool and he would exercise the greatest
possible care in climbing into the boat,
which he accomplished safely. Mr..
Ainsworth stated that at least three
minutes were spent in parleying with
the boy and getting into the boat.
AS there was absolutely. nc. Sign of
any hope of Mr.. Wiley's coming to the
surface, as he had already been under
for several minutes, the two made for
the Point, where Mr.. Ainsworth gave
the alarm. He first informed his wife,
so that in case Mrs. Wiley should ar
rive, she could be prepared for the sad
news. He then informed those he thought
would be most instrumental in render
ing the proper assistance. In a very
short time a rescue party boarded the
launch "Harriet" and proceeded to the
scene of the accident. They were ac-
companied by a number of people in
boats who were anxious to render all
assistance possible. In very short
time the body was located and drawn
up, and Immediately steps were taken
to try and revive him. All speed was
made to the Williams residence at the
Point, the men working meanwhile to
restore the drowned man to conscious
ness. Immediately on the accident be-
ing known, a hurry call was sent to
town for medical assistance. Drs.
Dickinson. Finnerud and Freeburg re-
sponded to the call, and on their arrival
assumed direction of the work of resto-
ration. About IL o'clock they reluc-
tantly ceased their labors, it being ap-
parent that their efforts were futile,
and all hope CT his resuscitation must
be abandoned.
Mrs. Wiley was in Watertown most
Of the day Thursday and did not know
of the fatal accident until her return to
Stony Point, when the sad news Of the
loss Of her life partner. was gently
broken to her. The shock was great,
for it was entirely unexpected. She
had no premonitions Of anything .unto-
ward that was to happen, as has been
reported, and was not present when the
two men started out on their trip, and
the news came as a terrible shock to
her. The day previous Mr., Wiley had
slipped in the boat while standing up
and had almost fallen overheard, and
before leaving for town Mrs. Wiley OBJ
