B. Dobbs, of Brick Store district, while on his way from Covington to his home, several days ago, stopped with some of his friends to take a bath in Alcova river. In diving in the water his shoulder was dislocated, and he came near drowning before his associates could get him to the bank of the river. The place where he made the dive was very shallow and his head and shoulders struck the bottom very hard. He was carried home and died the next day, although all that medical skill could do to save him was done. Aged about 40 years. He leaves a large family and many dear friends to mourn his sad and untimely death. This file has been created by a form at http://www.poppet.org/gafiles/ File size: 1.2 Kb
