He had met at the river bank a number of other negro boys, and they were all taking a bath, when he offered to show the others how he could dive. He jumped in the water headforemost and struck the bottom either breaking his neck or causing concussion of the brain. When he failed to come back to the surface, the others became frightened and latter a crowd that had gathered took him from the water dead.
