  	Obituary: Drowning Tragedy Claims Life of Crapaud Child Ashley Bartlett, six-year-old son of Mr. and Mrs. Ellsworth Wilson of Crapaud, lost his life by drowning in a millpond on Thursday evening. Though no one saw the accident it is presumed that the little boy coasted into open water in the centre of the pond. The body was recovered Friday morning. It was not decided necessary to hold an inquest. Several other children had been coasting at the pond earlier in the day. When they went home about 5:00 p.m. the boy stayed. The children had been using sleds and coasting off the bank on to the ice. They steered away from open water in the centre where the current was eating away the ice. When the other children left, the little boy apparently coasted with a toboggan and it is assumed he was unable to steer it away from the open water. The R.C.M.P. detachment at Borden supervised the search for the body. The boy was an only child. His father is dead and his mother married again. His father is a barber at Crapaud.
