A Boy Drowned at Denaby.

Walter Cramp, a boy six years of age, living at Denaby, was accidentally drowned in a pond at a quarry near the Manchester, Sheffield, and Lincolnshire Railway, in that village, on Saturday night.

He and his little sister, a girl four years of age, were gathering flowers in the quarry, when the boy accidentally fell into the water, and was dead before he could be taken out.
