LOUIS NIENSTEDT
TWO RIVERS BOY IS RIVER VICTIM WHILE BATHING
11 YEAR OLD LOUIS HENLINE LOSES LIFE WHEN HE DISOBEYS MOTHER
AND JOINS PALS IN THE LAKE
Two Rivers had its first fatality of the bathing season yesterday when Louis Henline, aged 11, lost his life while bathing in the lake. The body was recovered within twenty minutes but efforts to revive the child by use of the pulmotor proved unavailing. The boy was 11 and an adopted son of Mr. and Mrs. Neinstedt, of that city. The boy, with a number of companions had been in the lake during the afternoon and the Henline lad had returned to his home to secure a lunch and is said to have eaten a heavy meal. He was told by Mrs. Neinstedt not to return to the lake but disobeyed the warning and joined his companions.
The boys are said to have been testing their
ability to remain underwater and it is said the victim of the drowning had joined in the contest. When he failed to come to the surface the other boys made search of the spot where he disappeared and one of the boys stepped upon the body which was on the lake bottom. A hurried call was made for assistance and the Coast Guard crew recovered the body in a short time and everything possible was done to revive the lad, but without result.
The dead body was 11 years of age and had been a member of the Neinstedt family for some time, having been adopted at the death of his parents who were relatives of the Neinstedts. The burial will be held at Two Rivers.
