EIGHT YEAR OLD GIRL IS DROWNED
MOUNT HOLLY , June 28 - Margaret, the eight year old daughter of Aaron J. Bozarth, of Monroe Street, was drowned yesterday afternoon in Rancocas Creek, within a short distance of her home. She was playing along the creek with a boy and slipped overboard while near the edge of the embankment. The boy ran and told the child's mother of the accident, but by the time the mother and others arrived on the scene it was too late for them to do any good. Under the leadership of the child's father, grapplers worked for about two hours and recovered the body within a hundred yards of the playground.
