Arthur and Mary Deon.

Arthur J. B. and Mary Doon and Ar
thur McQuillan was tried Monday be
fore Justice of the Peace George A.
Hinman. The action was a civil one;

PUTNAM.
Drowning of W. L. Meehan and Police
man Who Went to Hia Rescu
Meeting of Baseball Directors Called
Miss Kimball Speaks Before D. A.
R. Chapter.
Many friends in this city learned
with regret Monday of the death by
drowning of W. L. Meehan, 26, of
Canton, Mass., well known in Putnam
and Jormerly of Woodstock, where he
was a blacksmith in the Scranton shop.
The accident was made particularly
sad by the loss of the life of Park
Policeman William Mateer, who met
death while endeavoring to save Mee
han. Friends of Meehan'a who -were
with him at the time narrowly escaped
death in attempting a rescue. The
accident occurred in Ponkapoag pond,
near Canton. The party was out on a
fishing trip and to thin ice is attribu
table the disaster that came upon
them. The men had about fifty lines
in holes cut through the ice and it
was while making a tour of inspection
among the field of tilts that the
spongy ice broke beneath Meehan's
weight and let him into the water. He
struggled desperately to crawl up on
the ice, bvt it continued to crumble
and" break in a way to defeat his ef
forts. His companions rushing to his
aid also went in, but fortunately in
more shallow water and were able to
make their way to safety. Patrolman
Mateer, hearing the orles for assist
ance, rushed to aid the drowning nmn.
Lying on the ice, Mateer crawled tow
ards Meehan and was close to him
when the ice sank beneath his weight,
and both he and the man he was try
ing to rescue went down.
It was two hours before the bodies
were recovered and only after the toe
had been broken up so that boats
could be launched. Meehan leaves a
widow, who was Miss Mildred Parker
of Mattapan, and to whom he had been
marriel about seven months.
His relatives are residents of Wood
stock. OBITUARY.

Mrs. Mary Jane x Chase, aged S9

Calls Meeting of League Directors and
Managers.
President A. L. Reeves of the East
