DROWNED. Chas. Hornung, Jr. of New Bavaria was drowned last Saturday night while in bathing with some of his companions in a creek near his home. Charlie in company with several young men of New Bavaria, spent the evening in Holgate returning home about 12 o'clock. After the boys arrived at New Bavaria, one of them proposed that they go in bathing, and Charlie and three of his companions started for the creek, and the remainder of the party started for home. After arriving at the creek Charlie sprang over one or his companions shoulder into the water, and not coming up to the surface in a reasonable length of time, his companions became alarmed and started for New Bavaria giving the alarm as soon as they arrived there. His body was not recovered from its watery grave until 5 o'clock in the morning. Several bruises were found on his face and some thought that there had been foul play, and Dr. Bowdle, of Pleasant Bend, and Drs. Becker and Stout, of Holgate, were called to examine the body. After a careful examination they unanimously asserted that there had been no foul play, but that the drowning was caused by his being seized with cramps when in the water. His untimely and tragic death is mourned by all who knew him. Holgate Times
