H. McConnel, and Mrs. Sherley, of Fruitland, was drowned in the irrigation ditch near Fruitland, last evening about seven o'clock. Mrs. Garmen came out from Iowa about three weeks ago for a visit, and was at the McConnel home with her daughter and was missed about seven o'clock when a search was made, finding the body about a quarter of a mile below where she had fallen in. It is supposed she had started to the home of her daughter Mrs. Sherley, and in crossing the bridge just north of Fruitland had fallen in. The body was brought to Payette and will be shipped to Iowa for burial. Mrs. Garmen was a widow lady 71 years of age. No further particulars of the sad accident is known at this office.
