Rev. G.M. Daniel Drowned in Swimming Pool, June 21, 1925

Rev. G.M. Daniel, pastor of Red Springs Methodist church, was drowned Monday while swimming in a pool between Raeford and Fayetteville. The children of his Sunday school with whom he had gone to the pool recalled seeing him dive into the pool but did not notice him any more. When discovered he had been dead probably a half-hour. The water where he dived was only four feet deep and it was not determined on first report whether he had hurt himself in diving or not.
