Frank Wright, Van Meter Paper Hanger, Loses Life In Raccoon River Yesterday.
VAN METER, Ia., - June 22 - Special: Frank S. Wright, a painter and paper hanger of Van Meter, was drowned this afternoon in the Raccoon river near here while seining. While out in the river pulling the seine, Wright became entangled in its ropes and meshes in some unusual way; he lost his footing and before his companions could do anything for him he was drowned. The body was recovered at once but efforts made to resuscitate him were unavailing. Wright was married and leaves a wife and several small children.
