WI], Thursday May 16, 1872, Page 3 Column 2 Last Saturday evening our citizens were startled by the news that Mr. A. D. WRIGHT, a resident of this village had been drowned that day at Clinton's Dam, near Grand Rapids, on the Wisconsin River, while engaged in running timber. It appears Mr. WRIGHT's raft had got into a jam, and he got off on the boom just above the dam to stop it with a cable, but in some manner lost the end of the cable. Thinking to regain the raft by jumping, he jumped for the raft, but fell short and struck the water. On seeing that he could not reach the raft, he turned and swam toward the boom, calling at the same time for some one to throw him a board. This was the last that was seen of him, as he went down soon after this, and was not seen again. Every effort was made to save him, by those nearest to him. Up to date his body has not been recovered. Mr. WRIGHT was an honest poor hard working man, and leaves an invalid wife who has not walked for the past six years, and three small children to the tender mercies of this world to mourn his loss. This is indeed one fo the saddest cases we have been called upon to record for a long time.
