Noel Schwab Drowned.
Sunday afternoon Noel Ellsworth SCHWAB, the six year old son of Supt. and Mrs.
C. A. Schwab was drowned while wading in the Dragoon river south of Carbondale.
Mr. Schwab with his three sons went ot the river to wade and as the boys were
wading up the rive they went into a deep hole. The father being on the bank went
in after them and succeeded in getting two of them at one time then back for
Noel, and after the third dive was successful in bringing him to the shore where
first aid respiration kept him breathing until the arrival of two physicians,
but after heroic work to save the boy, the heart refused to work. The body was
taken to the home of Mrs. Schwabs parents in Arcadia, Kans., Monday morning for
burial. This is a terrible shock to the mother and two sisters at home, also to
the entire community., who extend their sympathy to Mr. and Mrs. Schwab and
family. Little Noel was to have been a pupil in the primary department of the
school on Monday September 5th.
Noel Ellsworth Schwab was born at Weir, Kansas, March 26, 1921, and departed
this life, September 4, 1927 at the age of six years, six months and nine
days.--Carbondale Record.
