Oscar Hall, Aged 18, Drowns
While Bathing in Umpqoa
OCCURRED AT BRICK YARD
Companion Goes to His Assistance, bat
Abandons Him When Own Lite
Becomes imperilled
While bathing iu what is common
ly known as the "brickyard swim
ming hole," in the Umpqua river, in
South Roseburg, Wednesday even
ing. Oscar Hail, aged 18 years, was
drowned. By means ol a grappling
hook .operated from a row boat, the
body was recovered and then taken
to the young man's home ou Mill
street, where he resided with his
brother, Tom Hall, and sister. The
young man was employed as a driver
on the city delivery system, which his
brother owns. His parents, Mr. and
Mrs. J. W. Hall, reside at Cleveland.
In the water with young Hull was
Windsor Talcott, a few years older,
and who is also employed as a driver
on the delivery system. Talcott can
swim, but Hall could not. Accord
ing to Talcotts story of the tragedy,
r Hall waded into a deep holu, not
over 20 feet from the bank, and
that as soon as he observed his pre
dicament he swum to his rescue, al
though almost tired out from a swim
across the river and back.- Talcott
says when he reached his companion.
Hall grabbed him and dragged him
under water three times, Imperiling
his own lire as well. Finally ex
hausted and half strangled, Talcott
was obliged to abandon Hall In order
to save his own life.
The struggle of the two young
men was witnessed by three other
persons, Jake Cox. Frank Brand and

Cox was sitting on -the bunk. At
iirst it appeared to them that Talcott
and Hull were merely .engaged In a
friendly "ducking'' contest. Nelthei
one of the two struggling fellows
criea out ror help, but this was due
to the fact that (hey were too fat
gone to do so. When Talcott gain
ed the bank alone, however, the full
realization of what had happened
dawned upon them, but it was tun
late to render uid. Darkness hud Bet
tied over the water making it al
most impossible to locnte Hall s body
by diving. A boat and grappling
hook were hastily procured, and
over nn hour afterwards the body
was brought to the surface about
10 feet from where Hall sank to his
death.

gized Bryan and Kern, and in refer

iuicl:
"The present court system, while
