Took Mate With Him in Death.

Published in the Waukegan Daily Sun, Waukegan, Illinois on Thursday, December 1, 1921

     For many years a pair of swans lived on the lakes in the grounds of Meldrum house, Aberdeenshire, Scotland. One day the male swan, who was getting lame and evidently feeling his age, while sailing along with his mate, seized hold of her head and held her under the water until she died. Shortly after he himself was found dead near the same spot.
