Young Isaac E. Green Drown.
In Roanoke
Boat Capsized With Green and Young
Daniel. Death Due to Exposure
YOUNGEST SON OF DR.. |. E. GREEN

On Saturday afternoon the 4tl
inst, an accidentoccurred atWel
dor that has cast a gloom ovel
and saddened the whole com
munity. The two boys, the SOM
of men who have been and arr
widely known. Isaac E. Green
the son of that beloved physician
the late DR.. Isaac E. Green, ant
his friend, Walter E. Daniel, Jr.
the son of Mr.. Walter K. Daniel,
were overturned in a canoe ir
Roanoke river near the Atlantic
Coast Line Railroad bridge. They
were thrown in the ice cold wa.
ters of the river which had be.
come greatly swollen by reason
Of the melting SHOWS.
Both clung to the boat for
sometime, and when it was about
fifty yards from the Northamp.
ton side of the river young Dan.
iel succeeded in swimming to the
bank. Isaac told him to walk on
down the bank that he would
catc.latree. 1t is supposed that he
was trying to save his canoe.
This was the last time that the
friends spoke to each other. The
one reached the bank by swim
ming from tree to tree. and went
on down the bank expecting his
friend to either join him, or seek
a place of safety in a tree. Isaac
reached a tree, and spoke to two
small boys who were on or near
the bridge, Frank Cole and Ar.
thur House, telling them to go to
Weldon and get help and a boat.
Young Daniel then went to q
house of a colored man on the
hill near the river, expecting
Isaac to come at any moment.
1t required such a long time to go
to Weldon that it was supposed
that Isaac must have become be-
numbed by the cold and slipped
back into the water. When found
by those who came to rescue him
his sweater had become entangled
in a raft and nearly his whole
body was submerged. Drs. More
head and Suiter worked untiring-
ly and heroically in an attempt to
resuscitate him for more than
two hours, but it was of no avail.
1t is understood that life was ex-
tinct when his body was first
taken from the water. Roanoke

Despite the heavy snow storm
on Sunday. January the 28th, the
Girl Scouts attended services at
the Episcopal church. Scouting
was presented in a new way to
many. Each girl went away
with an individual message,
which she had received from the
appropriate sermon which Rev.
Taylor gave in his usual simple
direct manner. The talk was
based upon the first Girl Scout
promise - will try to do my
duty to God and to my Country. E"
