ClArlotte Chronicle.
Mr. Guy Maxwell, son of
Col. D. G. Maxwell, was
drowned in- the lake, at Latta
31 St.
pa,rk last.night. He and M.
Ed. Black welder were in one
of the roundbntftm. boats, in
their shirt sleeves, rowing ov
er the lake and evidently,
lrom their frequent laughter,
having a merry time. They
were skylarking a good deal,
racing, rocking the boat, and
at times pulling in different
directions,. Suddenly person
on the bank saw the boat cap
size and b&th of the young
men pitch head-foremost into
the water. Mr, Blackwelder
swam to one bank, but Mr.
Maxwell though accounted a
very good swimmer, beat the
waves with his hands and
. arms a'nd floundered. He crb?d
out a number of times, but no
ojie on tbe banks had at hand
any means of rescife. A col
oied man, who had some col
ored women in a boat 15 to 20
feet away,.pushed for the shore
fearing to go near to the
drowning man lest he over turn
his boat and having unloaded
the women, put back, but by
this time the cruel wafers had
closed for the last time over
the unfortunate young man.
The greater part of the large
crow.d at the park were, at the
time of the occurrence, view
ing Butt's panorama. Pistols
were fired and alarm otherwise
given and soon the banks were
lined with people. Men took
all the boats available and
searched for the body with
poles and chains and Messrs.
Tom Webb and E. A. McGhey
dived for it, but without suc
cess.. The. idrowning took place
about 9: 40 o'clock, -The Point
at wlhck the boat 'capsized is
about three-fourths the length
of the lake, toward the dam,
and about tbe middle of it
fr.om bank to bank. " The.wa
ter at that spot is something
'like fifteen feet eep.
