DROWN IN TANK POND.
Marion Shell, Age Eight, Meets
Death While Bathing

The old familiar headline,
Drown while bathing" seen in
every daily paper you pick up at
this season Of the year, was brought
forcibly to the minds of the people
of LacIede last Wednesday when
Marion Shell, the eight year old
SON Of Mr.. and Mrs. VIM. Shell
lost his life while bathing in the
railroad pond in the northeast part
Of town. After doing his morning
chores the boy secured the consent
Of his mother, and with his older
brother, aged IL, and two other
boys Of about the same age went
to the pond. They had been in
the water but few minutes when
Marion got beyond his depth and
the other boys not being able to
swim were unable to give any
assistance. The alarm soon reach
town and probably within twenty
minutes the body had been re-
covered. DIR. q. 7. Standby had
reached the scene of the accident
and gave the usual treatment for
removing the water from the lungs
and had the body removed to the
home of Mayor Johnston where
Drs. j. T.. and F. w. Burke joined
in an effort to resusitate.
Within perhaps twenty minutes
after the body had been taken from
the water DR.. Ed. Standby and L.
w. Rummell arrived in an auto
mobile from Brookfeld with the
pulmotor which was promptly ap-
Piled and the four physicians
worked faithfully for an hour and
a half but were unable to raise a
single spark Of life.
The body was removed to the
home Of his parents in South La

Undertaken ]. W. Moberly. In
charge of the family the remains
were taken to Kingman, Indiana.
