Mrs. Willex Wise, 28 years old, 3217 Chapel street, Cincinnati drowned yesterday afternoon at 5 o'clock when bathing in the Miami river in the rear of the Dagmar Inn, at a point south of the five-span bridge.

Mrs. Henry Thermax, 2100 Wayne avenue, of whose home she was visiting over the holidays, told deputy sheriffs that Mrs. Wise had gone down the river to wash her hair.

She said Mrs. Wise could not swim and was wading about in the stream when she tripped in over her head and sank. She had gone down for the third time before help could be summoned.

Deputy Sheriff Fred Long, Dwight Conever and William Alexander were rallied.  They took fire department equipment used in drowning cases and were able to recover the body at 6:30 o'clock.
Coroner John F. Turnmire was called and the body removed to the Harry Allenberger Funeral homes.
