AN ACCIDENTAL DEATH
Albert P. Noem station gent for the I.C.R.R. was drowned last Wednesday evening in a pond east of the Floyd river on the Blumer farm. He and Cecil Armstrong were in bathing and not being able to swim were wading in shallow water near the shore but in some manner Mr. Noem ventured too far out and stepped in a hole ten feet deep and went down. Four times he came up and each time his companion tried to save him but owing to his youth and inability to swim he was unable to do so. His companion ran over to George Ferguson’s home and gave the alarm. A large crowd soon gathered and did all they could to get him out but on account of the depth of the water it was an hour and a half before the body was recovered. Coroner Wiltgen of LeMars was notified and he came at once. The body was taken to the S.F.Fulton home where it was made ready for shipment to his mother and sister at Lake Preston S.D. The deceased had been station agent here but a few months and during this time made many friends—in fact he had no enemies. He was a favorite among the boys, the members of the T.S.O.T. society and the James ball team.
