Mr. Bristowe had provided him with a boat and net, and latterly he had been engaged in fishing. On Thursday evening he went out and returned safely with his fish, which he sold in town, and afterwards had tea with his wife and family. He then went down to secure his boat and net, and it is supposed that in hauling in the boat he slipped off the steps and, not being a good swim mer, was drowned. Mr. Young, who was on the jetty at the time, heard a cry and saw Darwin throw up his arms before sinking for the last time. In about half an hour the body was re covered. The members of the Bowen Dramatic Company will give an entertainment in their theatre, Dalrymple street, on the 27th instant, in aid of the wife and family of James Darwin.
