struck out for the drowning man, bat
before he reached him his courage or

found the waves too strong for him, or
he feared TO venture in reach OF tho
poor creature who was struggling for
life. He turned and made Roadway for
the rope. Another young man had sue

the swimmer who had started on the
rescue reached the rope, he seized and
helped him ashore in an exhausted on

the drowning man was Elias Schilling,
