He had been in the preparatory depart ment of Nev berry college and was a rising freshman. As stated he was t,:ne of the fishing party. He and a young Mr. Stevens went on ahead of the party and reached the river first. They got in the river and unfortunate ly struck a deep and swift current. The two boys were good swimmers and they swam across this current. On the return young Stevens swam ahead and it is said told young Lang ford that he had better not try it, but being a good swimmer himself he undertook to come across also. Hav ing on some clothes and heavy shoes he became exhausted. Mr. Stevens went to him and made a strong ef fort to save thim, but in vain. He sank and did not rise. The news of the sad death was brought to Newberry by Rev. D. P. Boyd. It was a great shock to his parents and his brothers and sisters. Immediately after the news came large numbers of people went to the river to recover the body, but it was not found until yesterday about noon and it was within a few feet of where he sank. The sympatihies of the entire com munity go out to the family in this hour of their sorrow. We extend our sincerest sympathy. We know what it is to give up a boy of that age.
