HACKBARTH DROWNS AT POCOTOPAUG ew Britain Man Falls From Boat While on Fishing Trip at East Hampton. Albert Hackbarth of 202 Seymour avenue was drowned in Lake Pocoto- paug, East Hampton, while on a fish- ing trip Saturday night. The acei- dent happened shortly after 10 o’clock when Hackbarth and two other New Britain men, J. N. Wilson and Joseph Steguel, were attempting to cross the | lake in a rowboat. Saturday night was stormy and there was a stiff wind blowing when the men entered the boat to pull across the lake to the fishing grounds. The lake has a bad reputation for squalls and it is be- lieved that one of these struck the boat, capsizing the craft and throw- ing the men into the water. Wil- son and Stequel managed to maintain a hold on the overturned craft, but Hackbarth, who was a poor swimmer, | was swept away and sank before he could be reached. Wilson and Stequel shouted for help and D. J. Cahill, who has a place on the shore of the lake near where | accident occurred, came to the rescue. As soon as possible after bringing Wilson and Stequel to the shore, men began dragging for the body of Hackbarth and shortly after midnight it was recovered by Mat- thew Strong and Eugene Nichols, who were using a line of barbed wire for a dr Medical Examiner Law- son of Bast Hampon viewed the body and gave permission for its removal and early yesterday morning it brought to his home in this city. It was learned today barth, who was fond of fishing at the Bast Hampton lake, had a narrow the escape on another occasion and when | the party left this city late Saturday afternoon one of his close friends cautioned him to be careful. ingly he assured his friend that noth- ing need be feared and further prom- ised to bring home a big string of fish. That was the last heard of Hackbarth until the news of the drowning reached here shortly before midnight Saturday. A special meeting of New Aerie, F. O. E., will be held this eve- ning, to take action on Hackbarth’s death, The funeral will be held from his home tomorrow afternoon at 2 o’clock and at 3 o'clock from St. John’s church, Rev. M. W.

It pro- tects our buildings from the violence of storms; successfully resists the attacks of rain, hail, sleet and snow; is unaffected by the sharp assaults of frost, and the withering fire of mid- summer sun. It even withstands the ravages of time, for CERTAIN- TEED Roofing is guaranteed for 5, 10 or 15 years, according to ply (1,2 or 3). Experience proves that it will out-last the period of guarantee. The long life of CERTAIN-TEED is due to the fact that it does not dry out, as ordinary roofing does. This is because it is made of the best qual- ity roofing felt, thoroughly saturated with a b%end of soft asphalts—the formula of the General’s Board of Expert Chemists. This soft satura- tion is then covered with a coatin of a harder blend of asphalts, whic! Erevents the drying-out process, and eeps CERTAIN-TEED impervi- ous to the elements for years after the harder, drier kinds of roofing have dried out and gone. CERTAIN-TEED is made in rolls; also in slate-surfaced shingles.
