The Georgia Enterprise
  Mr. ARMENIES WRIGHT, a student of Emory College, was drowned in Yellow River,
near the Railroad bridge, about 3 miles from Covington, on last Saturday. He 
was in bathing, and being an inexperienced swimmer, accidentally ventured in 
deep water, where he drowned before proper assistance could reach him. His body 
was recovered late Saturday night and brought to Oxford. On Monday morning a 
party of his school mates accompanied his remains on the cars to his home in 
Columbus. He was about 16 years of age, and a bright, handsome boy; possessing 
a brilliant mind, and was greatly beloved and admired by those who knew him.
