TWO BROTHERS DROWNED.
E. D. McFarland. of Adams, Seeks In.
formation Concernlnc His Brothers,
Drowned In Snake River.
E. O. McFarland of Adams, was in
the city today, on the lookout for in
formation, concerning the discovery
of the bodies of his two brothers,
Bert and Eph McFarland. who were
drowned In the Snake river, above
Lewiston, last week, while going to
the wreck of the stenmer Imnaha in
an open boat
The two McFarland hoys, in com -
pany with two companions, were go-
Inn tn .!.'- Vl n.VAnl- flf (tin OlIlimflT
expecting to rescue the boiler and
machinery, when their boat was cap
sized in the rapids and both McFar
lands were drowned and so far their .
bodies have not been recovered.
E. D. McFarland. the brother re
siding at Adams, is of the opinion
that the bodies might have been
washed down the stream and would
probably lodge on an Isfand lower .
down the stream, probably in the vi
cinity of Umatilla or Switzler's Island j
and would he found by some one there
not knowing of the accident ,
Bert McFarland was 27 and Eph 29 i
years old and both had resided in I
Lewiston and vicinity for the past 10
years.
E. D. McFarland has resided in
Umatilla county at Adams for the
past eight years, having come from
Klickitat county. Wash., where the
family formerly lived.
Parties have been diligently search
ing for the bodies of his brothers in
the vicinity of the accident, but all
hope of finding them there has about
been abandoned as the river has riseu
since then and Ice has been formed in
many places.
