the coach painters residence OH Exchange
ST., two sisters, aged IS and 10 years,
named Hannah and Ann Canuby, whose
parents reside on Edinburgh st, ycntured
out into deep water. They grappled with
each other and both went down. The rest
OF their party, who had by this time reached
the shore, began to scream fcarfully. Their
cries attracted the attention of a slender
little fellow named Octavius Isaac, aged
| l,5 years, son of Mr.. Nj, who was
sitting some distance off from the scene, on
the bank of the river. This brave and
fearless lad, upon observing the consterna-
tion manifested by the girls on shore, hur-
rled to the spot, pulled of his coat, and
thus equipped, plunged into the stream to
their rescue. The exhausted girls instant
ly seized him---one by the throat and the
other around the body. At this fearful
Jr~Hture, when they were all three in the
greatest conceivable jeopardy, an elder
brother of the little fellow, named Joseph
Osborn, aged Is years, who works at tho
carriage manufactory of Bradley g. Carson,
and son of Mr. Nj, who stood some
fifty rods off in conversation with Young
lady, ran down the Gencsee Valley Rail
road Track to see what caused such pierc-
ing cries, perceived his little brother and
the two girls clinchcd together and strug-
ling for life. Being a capital swimmer and
of great muscular strength hc with cap,
coat and boots on, boldly and heroicaiv
sprang like deer from the shelving bank,
swan out to their aid in the channel, and
by great personal bravery aud discretion
succeeded in bringing unaded, to the shore,
his brother and the drowning Girls in safe.
