Morning Oregonian November 21,1904
Drowned In Joe Creek
Miss C.E.Drummond Supposed To Have Been Thrown From Buggy
Hoquiam,Wash.,Nov.20-(Special)- Miss C.E.Drummond,a popular young woman of 
Iron Springs, a Summer resort on North Beach,is reported to have been thrown 
from a buggy into Joe Creek and drowned.The reports, which are meager,show 
that Miss drummond and her nephew left Iron Springs in a buggy to visit the 
Rountree place, at Joe Creek. Miss Drummond was left in the buggy while her 
nephew went to Rountree's, and returning found no trace of her.
It is supposed the horse became unmanageable and ran away, and while crossing 
the creek the unfortunate woman was thrown form the buggy and drowned. Miss 
Drummond was a woman of high standing in this city, and was well educated.Only 
last week she waded into the surf waist deep to save the life of Mr.Jaeger,an 
aged man,who had been carried out by a large wave while crossing the same 
creek.
