On Friday week, Stewart Eston, fisherman in Auchmithie, while gathering dulse on a rock near that place, fell into the sea and was drowned. He has left a wife and two children. This is the fourth son, besides her husband, whom his aged mother (who is still alive) has had the affliction to find herself deprived of by the watery element.

Drowning at Nigg
On Saturday last, a poor widow woman, of the name of Allan, was carried by the sea, while gathering dulce on the rocks near the Bay of Nigg, and drowned. The body was not found for two hours after the accident. We regret to learn, that she has left two children totally unprovided for.
