MO d/c 21999 Prominent Macon Citizens Die at Lake Two prominent Macon citizens, Dr. T. F. Turner and Ermal White, proprietor of the White Drug Store, are dead as a result of a motor boat accident on the Macon Lake about 11 o'clock Wednesday night. The two men, Mrs. White, Miss Jean White, and Bennett Strong, son of Mr. and Mrs. Charles M. Strong, were occupants of a motor boat which capsized near the east side of the lake. Mrs. White, who could not swim, held to an empty gasoline can while Bennett Strong helped Mr. White to shore. On reaching shallow water Mr. White collapsed and died, probably as a result of heart failure. Mr. Strong then helped Mrs. White to shore. Miss Jean White swam to shore, and tried to aid Dr. Turner, but he apparently became excited and swam away from rather than toward the bank. At ten o'clock this (Thursday) morning, the body of Dr. Turner had not been found, although a professional diver was searching the lake. This is the first fatal accident to occur at the Macon Lake.—(Courtesy Macon Chronicle-Herald.)
