Saturday afternoon he was acompanied by Young Henderson. They had left the Henderson home about 1 .30 • o'clock and went direct to the Ending. Upon entering the water they both started to swim to the. opposite side, a distance of possibly one hundred feet. Before they bad swam half way across • young Henderson cried, "1 can't make it." In the meantime Merle who was ^ also getting tired scrambled to the • piling in the middle of the streaih and shouted to a man passing by in a mo torboat, "Come and help the little boy he's drowning." According to youn| Robinson the man remarked that hi couldn't turn his boat around and kepon up the stream. By tljis time then was a swirl caused by the waves fron " the boat and the drowning form disap '• peared under the surface of the water Young Robinson quickly notified Eliai q Coveidale, who with his mA rowed on' , in a boat and grappled for the body About twenty minutes elapsed befon the body was ( ought to the surface . 1 was then taken to the undertaking es ■— iftbtishnjent of W.
