Ndrrow Escape. On the morning OF
the 18th as two sons of Dir. SiIas Long of
Oak Park, Kane Co., were with their load
ed teams from this place to their fathers,
in coming to the Des Plains river, the find
ing the same to have risen by great show
ers on one or two preceding days, led them
TO have some fears as to the safety in cross
ing. They therefore made inquiries about
it, and being informed they could safely
cross, they attempted and the eldest sue
ceeded after much difficulty; but when the
younger brother was about half way, the
water being so deep and the current strong
and swift, he was carried with load, wa
gon and horses down stream; and the wa
gon meeting with some obstruction, the ak
ctrcc broke,a the result was an mmedi-
ate plunge of boy and load into the deep
and mad current. The brother upon the
shore, Witnessing the perlous situation of
his young and dear brother, in the anguish
of his feeling was calm and consistent,
and decided upon prompt and energetic ac-
ton. He soon saw him rise from under
his loading, and called out 10 him, "be no,
afraid, catch hold of something and will
save YOU" The lad did so, and was saved
by his brother swimming into the river and
conveying him on bundle Of shingles 10
the shore. This may be considered an
other instance 10 show the great advantage
of being early taught to swim, and at a
time of great danger to be prudent, coura-
geous, firm, .and determined.
