J.S. Sellers Drowned
J. S. Sellers, the carpenter, was drowned in the river at Mayberry’s this
afternoon.  He was at work with some other men in putting a new pier into the
bridge.  The pier was being floated down to its place, and Sellers, becoming
entangled in a guiding rope, was dragged into the stream.  He was seen
struggling in the water for some time before he finally disappeared.  Efforts
are being made to recover the body.
Mr. Sellers leaves a wife and a family of four sons and a daughter.  He was an
old resident and a good, honest man, well-known throughout the county
