A Watery Grave A serious accident occurred last Sunday afternoon
in the 13th district near Clarksburg in which one child was lost and an
entire family made a narrow escape of being drowned. Just after the rain,
JOHN CHAMBERS and family undertook to cross Little Bacon Creek which was
considerably swollen. The water floated his wagon, turning the family of
father, mother, and three children, into the creek…. The cruel waves carried
one child, a boy about nine years old, out of reach of his father and to a
watery grave… found less than ½ mile from the accident…
