The Savannah News gives the
following sad accident:
Brief mention was made in yes
terday’s NkWs of the ■ accidental
drowning of one of the orphan
children at White Bluff.on Tues
day,,the particulars of which Could
not then be obtained. It seems
that one of the Sisters, as has been
the Custom, accompanied the Chil
dren to the hath house, and per
sonally attended to th^bathing of
the smaller onBi, tafifog them in
the water one at the tamo and dip
ping them. The tide bad gone
out when tho .children were taken
to the bath eteiuse, it being alter
three o’cloqrjtdhd there was net
quite thraWiet of water in the
furthest powon of the bath house
8everul of’The children had been
carried out by the Sister and dip
ped and Wore then seated on the
?X®P S .fifth* oilier girls to
room above and nress.
iori(KMijeiii was little Aggie Reil
ly, thefieeensed, aged about nine
years, who was a' cripple trout pu-
I'ttiysiS of the entire lett side of the
body, and whose mind was also
affected. After dipping her, the
Sister curried her to the steps and
told her to remain there until site
lind attended to one of the other
children, and she wnhld dress her.
The little one was reluctant, to
leave the water and asked to he
taken in again, which request was
declined The Sisier then gave
her attention to .tho other ohilil'reri
and was not conscious tlint Aggie
had left her place until her atten-
tinn umm iittniotnil' by seeingy the
bodjP» the' wiiter, which iihid in
tfiif meanwhile become quite.thiul-
ily at the root of the bath liiinse.
It is supposed the child’s anxiety
id enjoy 'another 'dip indiiced Ifer
to' disobey the iinunction given
her, and in making her way into
the ( Wttter sliA'-slippel .ou the
planks, wliioifeyrare covered with
mud, and beingliulpless, was una
ble to recover her footing, ond .was
thus drowned.
Tlie body was at once removed
to the lawn, am! one ot the girls
thought she delected 11 convulsive
motion of the inind and arm. It
was believed that life was not en
tirely extinct., and every means of
resuscitation were employed but
withuutavail.
