        Little Frank Bainbridge Loses Balance And Falls In Water

Little Frank Bainbridge, 6-year-old son of Mr. and Mrs. Arthur Bainbridge, 
208 Dartmouth Street, was drowned at 1 o'clock yesterday afternoon in one of 
the lakes about half a mile from Ocean View.  Young Bainbridge and several 
boy friends were in a rowboat gathering waterlilies.  Bainbridge stood up in 
the boat to pick a lily a short distance away and in reaching for the flower 
he lost his balance and fell overboard.
He was pulled out within a short time by John J. Moss and efforts were made 
to resuscitate him, but it was found that he had been dead before he was 
pulled from the water.  The body was turned over to H.C. Smith, funeral 
director, for burial.
