BELLMORE, L. I., N. Y., FRIDAY, AUGUST 14, 1908
PKIOE, 5 ClENTS^
fREEPORT
Mr., James J. Gormley. late presi¬ dent of the Long Island Realty Co,, who has been abroad for the past three months, accompanied by his wife, returned Tuesday, Aug. 4th, on the Kronprinz Wilhelm, and were welcomed at the pier by a large party of Brook¬ lyn and New York, friends.
¦*The drowning accident last Sunday at^oipt Lookout was a sad event, one which mar^red the entire day. As re¬ ported Hfetbert Carman of Norwood was drowned in the. surf in sight of friends, being unable to cope with the undertow. His body was recovered laterand removed toFgrbell's undertak¬ ing establishment "aft^r Coroner Neu had given permission forthe removal of the body. In all places wljere surf bathing is indulged in. apecialty. where there is known to exist such a thing as an undertow there should be 'no swimming outside or away from the lifelines. They aro'for that purpose and should be used by good and uncer¬ tain swimmers alike.
Laat Monday P. M. William Craw¬ ford, colored, startetl on the path which is not straight and narrow and became so vociferous that complaint, which resiilted in his arrest, was made, and said William was.in durance vile. To a. Mrs, Sally, his wife and others he used real warm language and be¬ oame to excited that he emulated the shooting stara 'by firing through the air a kerosene lamp, in his home on Henry St. Like all other lamps used in this abusive way, it retaliated by setting fire at once to his home. A Mr. Chapman with a handy rug im¬ mediately stopjped all efforte of aaid fire to destroy the burnable premises, but the fire whistle sounded'and out went the boys with the apparatus to find they had only their labor for their pains. Judge Tatem held William in $100. to trial ^Thursday. Not having the necessary 100 William is still in custody or was at the time this article was put together.^ .
The South Shore Yacht Club's enter¬ tainment and dance in their up to the
minute club house—drew, de.spite' the rain, a record crowd Aug. 7th. The porches and rooms were filled with a number of representative society peo¬ ple and yachting enhtusiasts. There was good talent and the music was fur¬ niahed by Muller. The rain did not pre¬ vent the yachtsmen and their friends from getting togetyjr for^what proved to be a rattling good evening for all. Secretary Max;son reports the open¬ ing day of the S. S. Y. C. a good time for the plans include nothing but the best in the entertainment line. Races, aquatic contests and the rocking chair fleet to become reminiscent each to the other will probably help^ass off a good time.
