William Mackie, 11, Loses His Life While At Play
William Mackie, aged 11, of York Village, was drowned yesterday afternoon at the private swimming pool of Andrew Murray Williams at Highland Farm, York Village. He was playing with his brother Edward, aged 7, along the cement wall, when in some way he slipped. The younger brother ran a quarter of a mile to notify his parents. Floyd Rockwell recovered the body of the boy and physicians worked two hours in a vain attempt to revive the boy. He is survived by his parents, Mr. and Mrs. William Mackie, and three brothers.
