Sixteen Drowned in Mississippi River Tragedy Near Pecan Point
Memphis May 30 Sixteen negro plantation workers from Chiles and related families drowned when their two skiffs overturned after a passing vessel sent waves across the Mississippi near Pecan Point forty miles north of Memphis. Will Bell survived by clinging to an oar and reporting the disaster to Dr Chiles. The dead include multiple Roundtrees and other names with seven bodies recovered. Blue River flood news from Beatrice Nebraska notes water several inches above last year, flooding streets, cutting off towns, flooding yards and stopping utilities.
