Information: Telford Lockhart, the five year old son of Mr. and Mrs. William Lockhart, who reside on Sandy, about seven miles above Sandyville, West Virginia, fell into the creek Tuesday and drown.  The little fellow was playing in the yard when the father left the house, just afternoon that day.  It is thought that he attempted to follow his father.  Being missed by his mother a few minutes later, a search was instituted.  The body had washed down the creek a short distance, catching on a drift where it was found by ""Billy"" McGown.  The remains were interred in the family cemetery Wednesday.  (McIntyre)
