A NARROW ESCAPE.
John GO1drup's Adventure in a
Masked Well.

Narrow Escape From Death by a Free.
port Mantle Snow Covered the Well
So Mr.. Goldthrup Walked Unsuspicious-
Iy In.
A curious but serious accident hap
pened to John Goldrup of Freeport on
Tuesday. Mr.. Goldrup is engaged in
hauling paving stones at the Mallet
quarry; and at the time the accident
happened, had just loaded his team and
was proceeding along the quarry road.
Near this road there was spring, and
being thirsty he stopped his team and
started across the slow to get drink of
water On the way was well about nine
feet deep, which was dug last summer TO
afford water for the quarry. This we'll
had not been covered, but the snow had
formed over it thin but deceptive crust
Unmindful of this well Mr.. Goldrupstook
a course which led directly over it; and
suddenly, when at the right spot, he
fell through, and found himself up to
his neck in ice cold water. In moment
he realized how desperate his position
was. The snow crust on the edges
afforded no hold by which he could
draw himself out, and indeed, barely
allowed him to keep himself above
water. Mr.. Goldrup at once began to
call loudly for help; but he was some
distance from any house, and there hap
pened to be no one near. He shouted for
long time until he could shout no
longer. Finally, when he had been in
the water about an hour and half one
of the other paving teams came along
the quarry road. By this time Mr.. Gold
rup could cry out no more; but the
teamster saw his hand waving above the
snow and went to his rescue. He was
taken out much chilled and exhausted;
but it seemed probable yesterday that he
would escape without very serious re-
sII IFS.
