Faughan about a mile from the village OF
Claudy, a young gentleman from Belfast,
who had been on a visit to the village
for the purpose of leading to the hymen-
cal altar one of the ladies who accom-
panied him on this occasion, missed his
footing and fell into the water, which
was about twenty feet deep at the place.
When the young lady saw her lover DIS
appearing from view she became dis
t1acted, and piteously appealed to those
near for help, but in vain, as no one felt
irclind to court almost certain death in
what seemed to be a hopeless task. When
the young man was about to disappear for
the third time, his ai1ianced hero.caHy
leaned from the bridge into the deep
waters, and with one hand grasped her
lover, while she swarm with considerable
difficulty against the current. After
great exertion, and when almost ex-
hausted, she brought him to the river
side where both We're helped out of the
water. Restoratives were applied, and
both were able to proceed to their re-
spectve residences.
