His sister, Mrs. Stover, looked into his room occasionally, and finally seeing that he was unusually quiet she stepped to the side of the bed and found that he as dead. Coroner Perine examined the body and was convinced that his death was caused by an affection of the heart, and therefore did not hold an inquest.

During the existence of the "Old Canaseragas" as a military company he was one of the most efficient members. Mr. Hartman was a man whom everybody liked and his death will be greatly regretted.

Silver Lake, On the 3rd, while a party of eighteen young couples from Nunda were enjoying a picnic at Silver Lake a fatal and terrible accident occurred to two of the number, HARRY SANDERS, son of C. K. SANDERS, editor of the Nunda News, aged 17 years and Miss KITTIE BAKER of the same place aged 15 years, about 8 p.m. took a rowboat at Walkers dock and started out on the Lake.

This was the last seen of them alive. In the morning their hats were found floating upon the water near the Dowling Sportsmen's House on the east side, and later the boat in which they embarked the previous evening was found in the rushes at the foot of the Lake.

The Lake was covered with boats and dragging parties all day Sunday and Monday without any success in a vain attempt to recover the bodies. The parents are nearly distracted. The search will be resumed to-day. It is said Miss Baker is subject to fainting spells and it is conjectured that she might have had one in the boat and Harry going to her assistance both fell in and were thus drowned. Both were bright, intelligent children and the affair has cast a deep gloom over the community. This is the first accident on the Lake in over 30 years.

Perry, July 5. J. H. T. P.S. 8 a.m. July 6. The bodies have just been found. Inquest now being held.
