Ridgway July 20 The first Elk County drowning this season occurred Thursday when Caroline Sorg of St Marys at South Michael Street drowned in a pool on the William Willing Farm about two miles west of Howard Siding.

The pool sits shallow at ends, six to eight feet deep in the middle. Walter Pilling, 18, could swim and attempted to aid her after she drifted beyond her depth. Marginal effort and rescue attempts failed after his return with a pair of water wings delayed the incident.
