Julius A. Biggerstuff, who loved Lola Hall, the daughter of his next neighbor above, had called upon his sweetheart Friday night; they were to be married, it is said, on Sunday morning. But before Saturday's sun had farly risen Biggerstaff and all six members of the Hall family had been swept into eternity.

Several of those who
drowned at No.2 were buried on Vinegar Hill
overlooking the river. Their graves are unmarked
and covered with undergrowth. Only
one of the tombstones remains, and it has been
removed from the gravesite. Its inscription:
Julius A. Biggerstaff, May 30, 1876 to June 6,
1903.
