A Local Happening (continued)
“A very distressing accident happened on Lough Rath which is about two miles from Ballintra.”
(continued from previous page)the other little boy tried to take his out but he fell in too. When night came on and the boys did not return home their parents got anxious about them. A search was made but no trace of them was to be found. It was not until the following evening that their bodies were discovered side [?] by side.- Collector
