L. Hudson, who is also o printer, and is well known in nearly every printing of- fice in the State, were camping on the banks of the Suwannee, where they had been for a day of two. About 1 o'clock in the afternoon Mil. ler told his partner that he was go- ing to take a dip in the river and had been in only a short time when his cries for “help” reached the ears of Hudson, who endeavored to res- cue him, but his efforts were in vain, as he went to the bottom before any assistance could be given him. Hud- son immediately notified the resi. dentsof Suwannee station and a searching party, led by Mr. Wm. Allison, was formed and an effort made to recover the body, which at this time has not been found. Mil- ler, who had been working In In- verness, was in Live Oak Monday and spent some time in the Democrat office and upon leaving here took with him a number of exchankes, which are frequently used by print- ers while on the road for a bed.
