A Providence correspondent speaks as fol.
lows Of Mlss Ida Lewis, who, on Monday
last, rescued two soldiers from drowning in
Newport harbori
'Mlss Ida Lewis has again distinguished
herself by rescuing two men from drowning,
We cannot recollect Just now how many she
has saved from watery graves, but we think
the number Is not less than dozen. Her
father Is keeper ofthe Lime Rock Lighthouse,
located near Fort Adams. Having been
almost helpless invalid for q number Of
years past, the labor indispensable TO keeping
the light In proper order has devolved upon
bis wife, who has found an able assistant In
her daughter Ida. The latter jumps into her
boat almost daily, regardless Of what the
weather may be, and, with pair Of oars,
propels 1t to Newport, distance one and q
half miles, in an incredibly short space Of
time. She has been brought up on the
water as II were, and can manage boat
better than nine out OF ten ofthe male sex.
In fact, she claims that she can row boat
faster than any man In Newport, aud we are
inclined to believe her, having witnessed he r
management OF one on several occasions.
Ida is about 23 years Of age, tall and slender,
but possessed Of unusual courage and eudur-
ance. She never hears the voice Of distress,
night or day, without jumping into her little
craft and proceeding TO the scene OF trouble.
She has encountered great perils In the
prosecution Of humanitarian Offices, but her
great tact and GOODNESS have always been
equal 10 the emergency. II Is q pity, and
| pity It's tbs true that no testimonial has
| ever been given to this lady for the many
| lives she has saved. Certainly, no one has
ever more deserved a public recognition for
distinguished services"
