John w. Mcdonald, residents Of the
section between Cut Bank and Kew

dropped into this depression and
soon sank beneath the water Young
Bensh gave the alarm and E. W. Gil
lespie, grandfather OF the boy hur
ried from his garden and waded tc
where he had sunk, bringing him tc
shore and using every effort at resus-
titation. Although in the water but
for very brief time, about six min
utes, he failed to respond.
The death of Darrell was heavy
blow to his parents, and broshers
and sisters and the entire commun,

timely death. For a time he was 8
resident Of Cut Bank, during the per
iod when his father worked in local
rail service. He attended the local
school and was favoriie among the
pupils in his grade. He is survived
by his parents, three brothers ano
two sisters. He was fifteen years OF
age.
Funeral services were held Wed
nesday afternoon, at the Presbyterian
church, Rev. H. E. Ingersoll con-
ducting the services. Friends Of ths
family from all parts of the commu
nifty attended the last rites and the
