Longeway, a well known farmer of that township, aged 38 years, left home earlier in the day on a hunting expedition. He intimated that he would return at a certain hour. On his failure to do so, enquiries were made as to the reason. It appears that Mr. Longeway had reached the farm of Mr. William ,Morenz, some distance west of the village of Born- holm. Through this farm runs a large ditch, with a considerable depth of water in it. Deceased apparently sought to cross, it' by walking on a board which stretched across it. While doing so it is supposed that the board ditch and became entangled in a wire fence which also spanned the drain. Unable to extricate •himself, Longe - way sank and was drowned. His body was found by searchers and re- moved. Dr. A. D. Smith, of Mitchell, who happened to 'be in the neighbor- hood, was hastily called but life had been extinct for some time.. The body was removed to his home at Lot 16. Concession 13, near Kennicott. Mr. Longeway is survived by a widow, one son and one daughter. He,was born in Logan township, was well known and had a large circle of friends. Much sympathy is extended to Mrs. Longeway and her two chil- dren. The funeral took place on Sat- urday morning, Mass being celebrat- ed at St. Brigid's Ohurch by Father Gaffney.
