drowned in the river opposite the Kidder
woods about $3.50 or four o'clock Friday
afternoon. The body was recovered about
two hours later. Young Meunier was in
swimming with four or five companions

were at work. Benjamin Barber dove to
search for the boy and finally located the
body, and Wilfred Companion with his line
and hook caught Meunier in the arm
and pulled him up Barber who found
the boy, in diving once struck his head on
a rock. The boys in swimming with
young Meunier were Leo COMPANION
Frank Salouri, Vincent Galuska and two
Pouln boys. When the body was pulled
ashore about six o'clock Health officer DR..
j. G. Thabault and Selectmen Hector

body was removed to the undertaking
