There was a quiet funeral at
the undertaking parlors of Bovee
& Bauer at 2:45 Tuesday after
noon, over the remains of the
late William Holcomb of Monroe.
The services were conducted by
xtev. Kj. 1, Hurd in the nresencfi
oi a lew persons, and interment
was at Crystal Lake cemetery.
Mr. Holcomb met death by
drowning in the Long Tom river
at Monroe about S o'clock Sunday
evening. With a companion,
Joe Dovadsky, he went in bath
ing, although unable to swim.
J ust a moment before the fatal
accident, Holcomb was warned
by Dovadsky to be careful as
j there was a step-off in the river
bed near by, where one was like-
ly to step from solid earth off
into 20 feet of water. "Oh, I'm
not afraid, I've been here before"
was Holcomb's reply, and almo: t
instantly he stepped off into tha
hole and went down. Holcomb
weighed about 195 pounds and ,
Dovadsky only 125, but the latter
swam to his friend's assistance
and grabbed him. The drown
ing man, however, seized Dovad
sky by the leg and only by kick
ing until he was free was Dovad
sky able to save his own life. He
hurried to tha bank and got a
pole with which to rescue Hol
comb, but finding that impossi
ble he ran to town for help and
the river was dragged until mid
night but not until earlv Mon-
aay morning was tne body re
covered. lne remains were
brought to Corvallis Monday and
prepared lor burial. Mr. Hol
comb was about 27 years old and
has only one relative here, his
mother, who makes her home
with Mrs. Millie Smith, in Linn
county. A futher touch of path
os is added to the melaracholv
event by the fact that both moth
er and son were without means
and the latter was buried at the
expense, of the county.
We will place these very desira
ble embroideries on sale Saturday
at 5 cents the yard.
