DROWNED HERE THURSDAY

Percy, the three year old son of
Mrs. Flora Longfellow of Pontiac was
drowned in the pond in Paw Paw
Thursday forenoon. Mrs. Longfellow
and son were visiting at the home of
Mr.. an dMrs. A. f. Spicer. Thurs
day forenoon, the little fellow accom-
panied Charles Spicer to the pond,
and in some manner fell from the
pier. While he was in the water but
a few minutes, all efforts of the
physicians at resuscitation were of no
avail. 1t is thought that he must
have choked to death almost instantly
Much sympathy is expressed for the
bereaved mother.

Lake View School Picnic"
Lake View School picnic time is here
again,
How busy the people all have been.
Getting ready for the time of all the
year
"For Lake View Time" again is here.
The time that seems to us so dear,
We meet all the old friends that we
knew
Way back in Eighteen seventy-two,
They come from over hill and plain,
To attend this picnic once again.
There is grandpa and grandma
And all the rest,
Dressed up in their very best.
We all take our picnic baskets along
And sing many a gay and happy song
And when the picnic time is done,
Well go home and wait for another
one.

Nicholas p. Kremer, well known
citizen of Lesterville township,
met death suddenly yesterday af-
ternoon, when his car a new Ford
turned turtle with him on Mil
waukee grade. Mr.. Kremer was
found under his car, dead, with
his back broken.
Mr.. Kremer, who was forty two
years of age. left his farm home
southeast of Lesterville, about 2
p. m. He was driving a new
Ford, which he was learning how
to drive. He was alone in the car
and there are no witnesses to the
accident. The unfortunate man
was going to Lesterville, Today
one Of his children had birth
day, and he was going for supplies
for celebration; instead prepara-
tions are being made for funer-
al. Alter the start from his homo
Mr.. Kremer was not seen again
until found by school children, re-
turning from school at 4 p. IN. il,
among them some of the dead
mans own children, it is stated.
At a Milwaukee grade crossing,
|3H miles southeast of Lesterville,
Mr.. Kremer had to cross. There
is steep grade here. 1t is pre-
sumed he approached quite fast,
the car bounced, and he lost con-
troll, the car topping over, pinn-
lug him underneath. The car,
when removed, was found to be
pressing upon the small of the
back of Mr.. Kremer. He laid
down and was quite dead. Dr..
Flank Moore, Of Lesterville was
summoned, and expressed the o.
pinion that Mr.. Kremer had been
dead for about two hours. 1t is
probable the accident occurred n
bout 2:15, with death instantan-
eous. The accident took place a.

bout one and onehalf miles from
Mr.. Kremer's home, OH the road
his children travelled, going to and
from school. DR.. Moore made
very close inspection of the scene
of the accident. There was no
sign Of collision, and no witness
es can be found who saw the sad
affair. DR.. +. G.. Smith, of this
city, was notified, and decided the
cause Of death had been deter
mined conclusively enough, and
was clearly accidental, and no in
quest was held. Mrs. Kremer
and her family will have the deep
sympathy Of relatives and friends
in this city and county, in the
swift bereavement that has come
upon them, and which will be felt
all the more keenly because Mr..
Kremer met his death while at
tempting to carry out what he
proposed to be joyous birthday
party for one of his children.
MIR. Kremer was a home man of
kindly impulses, and in business
way highly esteemed. Great re-
gret is being expressed on all sides
over his death. Press -Dakotan.
