...from drowning in the Charles river yesterday afternoon. The boys were Richard Wolbert, of 9 Centre street, and Philip Rutledge, of 8 Chatham street, both of Cambridge. Lathrop and McKay were walking along the parkway near the Cambridge Boat Club about 5 o'clock in the afternoon when they saw a crowd collected near where the two boys had gone through the ice.

...saw one sign in the parade which said that they didn't have much to give for note-paper. Will you please accept a little for them in case they need some at an inconvenient time, from the little boy with best wishes. I will gladly send more if wanted, or some cents as referred to on the placard. I know of one shortage of note-paper I don't wish for again. A SOLDIER'S MOTHER...
