They went to a secluded spot where bathing suits were not necessary. They left the crowd about 2 o'clock and went about ½ mile away. When 5 o'clock arrived the parents called for the boys, but on not receiving an answer, they started a quest and found the boys clothing upon the ground with the boys nowhere in sight. John Wang, a companion of the missing boys, volunteered to dive for them and soon located them at a point which is a deep spot on the William Kutz farm. The bodies were all found and taken to the Stark Undertaking rooms at Salem, after which they were removed to their homes. Owning to the fact that the Weaver boys were unable to swim, it is thought that the Amon boy had given his life to rescue them. All efforts to resuscitate the boys was to no avail. The boys had all attended Sunday school that morning and were on a committee to arrange for the Sunday school picnic, which was to have been held on Wednesday. The boys were all born and lived in the same neighborhood and were unusually good friends.∼Age 10 THREE BOYS DROWNED IN CREEK WHILE SWIMMING.
