Description

Full Text: Fatal Accident.--We are pained to learn of the drowning of a son of Mr. Wm. Norton of Holland last Monday afternoon at Walter's Falls. It appears several young men went to bathe in the mill-pond, and while having a good time in a small boat, the boat upset and young Norton not being able to swim, was drowned. He was some 17 years old. The body was recovered about an hour after the sad affair happened.
