in the lead. They stepped into a

and Miss Mabel Wright, who were
just behind them, also went into
the hole. None of them could
swim, but the latter two were
rescued, while it was impossible to
save the Others.
The neighborhood was aroused
and in short time a large number
of people were assisting in the
search for the bodies. Divers re-
covered the body of Humphfres
about three O'Clock Sunday morn
ing. The search for the body of
Miss Phelps continued until nine
o'clock Monday morning, when it
was found on a sandbar about 21a

The funeral of Mr.. Humphfres
was held at Meadville Tuesday
afternoon, and interment was made
in Meadville cemetery. He was %
years old and unmarried. Miss
Phelps was buried at Chillicothe
Tuesday afternoon. She was 19
years old and the daughter of DR..
and Mrs. T. G. Phelps of that

vouno peOple and their sudden
death has brought sorrow to the
hearts of all who knew them.
