| 6802 | Fulton Times - 7/29/1914 Bernard Brady, 19 years old, a papermaker at the Volney Paper Mill, who lived with his parents, Mr. and Mrs. Walter Wainman, 714 Hanbal street, was drowned at North Bay, Lake Neahawanta about 2:30 Sunday afternoon. A party of young men composed of Brady, Saul Carpenter, Henry Matott and Harry Ketchum went to the lake after dinner intending to en- joy boating and swimming. Immediately upon arriving the party entered the water and as Mr. Brady could swim no anxiety was felt for him until he was noticed a little later by his companions to need help, but before he could be reached he sank not far from shore. The plant formation in the water' is particurly thick at that part of the lake, and it prevented anyone locating the body. Later, by the aid of a pike pole, the body was brought to the surface, It is believed the young man met his death through cramps. Health officer Whitaker, who was in charge the case, believes death was due entering the water too soon after eating. A gloom has been cast over the surroundings of the pretty little leasure spot, where scores of Ful- ton's people enjoy many hours of real recreation. Sympathy is extended the parents of the young man in the tragic ending of so young a life. | WAINMAN, Bernard (I87625)
