The Holton Weekly Signal Jackson County Wednesday September 10, 1890 A Young Man Drowned at Arrington. At three o'clock last Thursday afternoon, Duane BURDICK, son of a Nortonville jeweler, went into the Delaware river at Arrington for a swim, with a young friend of his. When the young man had returned to the banks of the stream he heard his friend call him from above, but before he could reach him he sank beneath the waters. He appeared again and his friend jumped in to save him, but both sank on account of the drowned man's weight, and the friend had to leave him. The unfortunate was a bright young man of 20 years.
