BROWNS IN LAKE DuNMoRE
Marjorie G. Spencer Of Rutland Meets
Death While Bathing.

Rutland, Aug. 22.-The waters of
Lake Dunmore Thursday claimed
their second victim this season when
Miss Marjorie G. Spencer, daughter
of Alderman and Mrs. Charles W.
Spencer of So ELM street, was drown
ed about $50 o'clock a. m. while bath
Ing, A companion, Miss Kathleen
Mcnamara of Fair Haven, escaped
drowning after making heroic eff
fort to save her friend who, ii is be-
lieved by those who witnessed the
drowning, succumbed to a heart at
tack. The scene OF the drowning was
short distance off Sanders Point,
which is about 800 yards east OF
Moosaeamoo park.
Miss Spencer's body was recovered
within 10 minutes after she released
her hold ON her companion and sank.
Stephen Derby OF Gardner. Mass, a
14-year-old member OF Camp Kee-
wadin, boys summer resort,
brought the body Of Miss Spencer
ashore, having located it face down
in about eight feet of water. All ef-
forts at resuscitation failed, although
an expert swimmer from the boys
camp worked over the body large
part OF the morning. Doctors were
sent for in Brandon and Rutland but
their efforts we're unavailing. 1t is
thought that death resulted from
heart failure rather than drowning.
Marjorie Grace Spencer was an on
ly daughter. She was born in Rut.
land % years ago the 27th OF last
March and had always lived in the
city with the exception of the time
she spent at college. She graduated
from the Rutland high school in the
class of 1915, entered Smith college
the following fall and graduated last
June. She was preparing to enter
Columbia university for a post gradu.
ate course next month, in order to
specialize in French and Spanish. She
had worked hard during her final
year in college and was at the lake
for much-needed rest.
Miss Spencer was a member of the
Methodist hurch and attended that
Sunday school. Besides her parents
she is survived by two brothers, Ray
mand B., and Charles w. Spencer, Is
and 10 years old, respectively.
