Drowning
(Continued from Page 1)
pole glanced off an obstruction
near the road side of the lagoon.
Amend alerted the main
search party and Frank Woods,
a heavy equipment contractor
who lives at the ddge of the
lagoon. Woods hooked onto the
car, a 1941 Chevrolet coupe, and
in about an hour after locating
the car, it was swung onto the
road. Both bodies were inside.
They were removed in the am
bulance to the Adkins Funeral
Home, thus ending the terrible
suspense of the long search.
How the car happened to go
off the road has not been de
termined. Inspection of the ve
hicle showed, police report, that
i't was not a mechanical failure
that caused the accident. Specu
lation is rife, as to the possi
bility of the driver having been
blinded by dust, or she might
have turned to the little boy
who was in the front seat with
her.
The car was in a parallel po
sition with the road in the east
side of the lagoon, and had ap
parently not gone in head first,
but might have turned over
once, although it was right side
up in the water and completely
submerged. It is hard to ima
gine. an accident of this kind
happening on a well traveled
road without being seen. Search
ers insist that there was no sign
of the accident even such as
broken bushes or crumbling
banks. It was described as “one
of those fantastic and impossible
things that just could not hap
pen—but did.”
FRIENDS
Ain’t it fine when things are
going
Topsy-turvy and askew
To discover someone showing
Good old-fashioned faith in you?
Ain't it good when life seems
dreary
And your hopes about to end.
Just to feel the handclasp cheery
Of a fine old loyal friend?
Gosh! One fellow to another
Means a lot from day to day
Seems we’re living for each
other
In a friendly sort of way.
When a smile or cheerful greetin’
Means so much to fellows sore.
Seems we ought to keep re
peatin’
Smiles and praises more and
more.
