| 7873 | The Niagara Gazette Two Brothers, Unable to Swim, Are Drowned in Storm Off Sandy Beach Bergholz Youths Are Victims Of Double Fatality; One Body Is Recovered. The Niagara river took a ton of at least two lives yesterday when Harold Jagow, 17, and his brother, Benjamin Jagow, 18, both of Jagow road, town of Wheatfield, were drowned while swimming at Sandy Beach, on Grand Island in the upper river. Reports that another swimmer of the group at the beach was missing were not confirmed. The body of the younger brother was recovered about 9 last night, some 400 feet out in the river from the point where he had been swimming and search is being today continued for the second body. Accompanied by three cousins, the two youths went to the beach about 3 p. m. yesterday. and shortly after they had entered the water became separated from the others. With a crowd of some 50 or 60 persons at the small beach, they were not seen by their cousins again, the others assuming that the pair was somewhere in the crowd, which was agitated by wind and rain, which descended at intervals. Finally, about 6 p. m.. their attempts to become reunited with the pair disclosing that they were not in the crowd the cousins raised an alarm and the customs border patrol was notified. One woman in the crowd revealed that she had seen one of the boys go down in the deep water a short distance from the shore but had assumed at the time that he was merely diving. Meanwhile rumor spread that three other swimmers were missing but two of these were later discovered inland under a tree where they had protected themselves from the storm. Whether a third person was actually missing could not be determined. Neither of the brothers could swim a stroke, members of the family said today. The pair had never been to the beach before, they said. Accompanying the pair were three cousins, Norman DeVantier, 21 years old, and his two sisters, Lydia and Edna DeVantier, all of Tuscarora road, Town of Niagara. Sergeant Oliver C. Vossler and Inspector Edward T. Millidge, of the customs border patrol, found the body of the younger Jagow brother at about 9 o'clock last night through the use of grappling hooks. Medical Examiner Charles E. Long, of Buffalo, issued a certificate of accidental death. The search was abandoned late last night because of the high wind hut was resumed today although it was feared that the other body may have been carried down the river and possibly over the cataract. Funeral arrangements for the younger youth have not been completed yet but is expected that the service will be held Wednesday. Surviving the pair, who were born and raised in Bergholz, are their father and mother, Mr. and Mrs. Fred Jagow; six brothers, Walter Jagow, of Denver, CO, and Howard, Franklin, Irwin, Victor and Frederick Jagow, all of the Town of Wheatfield; and four sisters, Mrs. Hugo Gade and Mrs. Melvin Williams, both of Bergholz, and Elfrieda and Marilyn Jagow, both at home. - The Niagara Gazette TWO BROTHERS LOSE LIVES IN NIAGARA RIVER Residents of Niagara Falls Boulevard, Bergholz, are drowned near Buckhorn Island Two brothers were drowned in the Niagara River at the state park reservation on Buckhorn Island just off the northeast shore of Grand Island yesterday afternoon.

The Niagara river took a ton of at least two lives yesterday when Harold Jagow, 17, and his brother, Benjamin Jagow, 18, both of Jagow road, town of Wheatfield, were drowned while swimming at Sandy Beach, on Grand Island in the upper river. Reports that another swimmer of the group at the beach was missing were not confirmed. The body of the younger brother was recovered about 9 last night, some 400 feet out in the river from the point where he had been swimming and search is being today continued for the second body. Accompanied by three cousins, the two youths went to the beach about 3 p. m. yesterday. and shortly after they had entered the water became separated from the others. With a crowd of some 50 or 60 persons at the small beach, they were not seen by their cousins again, the others assuming that the pair was somewhere in the crowd, which was agitated by wind and rain, which descended at intervals. Finally, about 6 p. m.. their attempts to become reunited with the pair disclosing that they were not in the crowd the cousins raised an alarm and the customs border patrol was notified. One woman in the crowd revealed that she had seen one of the boys go down in the deep water a short distance from the shore but had assumed at the time that he was merely diving. Meanwhile rumor spread that three other swimmers were missing but two of these were later discovered inland under a tree where they had protected themselves from the storm. Whether a third person was actually missing could not be determined. Neither of the brothers could swim a stroke, members of the family said today.
