The Agitator.: (Wellsborough, Tioga County, Pa.) June 3, 1858
Drowned! - Two little children, a son and daughter of Mr. Ives, residing in the
neighborhood of Bennett's Mills, Middlebury, were drowned on Saturday, 29th ult., at
about noon. It appears, from the best information we can gather, that the little
ones attempted to cross a small stream much swollen by the rains and, as it is
conjectured, becoming terrified, fell in. The crossing was by a single plank. The
bodies were recovered by the sorrowing parents about 30 minutes after the children
were missed from the house. They were buried on Monday,
