                 drowned in Detroit lake last evening
                 about 8 o'clock. He left his home
                 shortly after 6 o'clock with another
                 man and was fishing near the sandbar.
                 His companion was found clinging to
                 the overturned boat and when rescued
                 was nearly exhausted. Just how the
                 accident occurred is not known. KING
                 was about forty years old and had 
                 resided here many years.
