About an hour and a half elapsed before his body was recovered, although diligent exertions were made by a large number of our citizens to find it. On removing some brush wood, which had lodged near the dam the body floated down stream several rods, and was caught. It was then taken to the residence of Capt. Partridge, on Lake Street. Young Partridge was a lad of rare promise, and his untimely death is sincerely deplored by
