Native Virginian 10 July 1868
Mr. George McLean, was found drowned in the Rivanna River about a quarter mile 
above Shadwell.

When found the body was tied by one foot, with a handkerchief to a bush on the 
river bank. He was last seen alive about ten o'clock Saturday morning. sitting 
on the railroad track near that place.

He lived with his daughters at Shadwell, Mr. McLean was quite an old man, and 
well known as a bricklayer, in the neighborhood of Shadwell and Milton where he 
had lived for many years. He was a native of Baltimore city, we believe. He was 
in bad circumstances and bad spirits, and the probability is that he drowned 
himself. -Charlottesville Chronicle.
