He left home Tuesday morning for the huckelberry marsh in apparent good health, and as he had not returned at 10 o'clock, his mother became alarmed and got a number of men to go and search for him. They returned at 1 o'clock a.m., only to report that they had met with no success as it was too dark to see. They started again about five o'clock Wednesday morning and about 10 o'clock his basket, hat and tin cup was found, and about 4 o'clock his body was found, face downwards, in the marsh, where he had probably fallen in a fit, which he has been subject to since his birth, and suffocated Additional Comments: Wendell C.
