RESCUED A DROWNING Roy.
MIR. Edward Maclenn's Heroic Act
at Fitchbmrg Mnss.

Mr.. Edward NJ. Maclean, formerly
of Savannah, now superintendent of a
cotton mill at Pawtucket r. l., hero
ically rescued a little boy from drown
ing in the Nashua river, near Fitch
burg. Mass, last Wednesday. The
Fftchburg Sentinel. under the heading,
AN Unknown Hero" gives the fol-
lowing account of the rescue:
An unknown hero saved the life of
Eddie Leger in the Cleghorn district,
this morning, diving into the cold and
muddy water of the Nashua river at
| ter the child had sunk beneath the sur
face for the last time. The boy is the
/ 5-year-old son of Andrew Leger, who
/ lives at COS River street. Directly be-
hind the house the river runs and the
boy was playing on the narrow strip
of ice which runs along the shore. In
reaching for a stick with which he was
playing, the boy lost his balance and
fell into the water.
"A workman handling coal at the De-
/ jonge paper mill dump witnessed this
part of the accident. and at once gave
/ the alarm On the bridge over the
] river dl YAK f1lll IOdQ d strange young
man was walking and the cries of the
coal handler drew his attention to the
/ incident. Only stopping a SECOND to
ask Felix Teehan. driver for F. F.
/ Woodward & Co. how deep the water
! was, the stranger tore around TO River
/ street jumped down the bank wall and
/ dove into the river.
He had stopped only to remove his
overcoat, there being no time to do
anything else, for the place where the
child disappeared was marked only by
bubbles. In a moment the young man
came to the surface bearing in his
arms the child and wading to the
shore he placed his burden in the hands
of Felix Teehan, who pulled both to
the shore.
The stranger then hastened to the
fire station on Oak Hill road, and asked
that a doctor be sent for, and DIR.
Beauchamp was hastily summoned. He
found the child unconscious and rigid
from the cold, but after working over
him for fifteen minutes he was able
to open his eyes Having waited long
enough to see that the child was all
right, the young man took his coat,
and refusing the many offers of dry
clothing, went toward the city on an
electric.
Inquiries all over the Cleghorn dis
trict failed to reveal the name of the
heroic young man. He told Mr.. Tee
han that he was a stranger in town
While unknown where the rescue of
the drowning boy took place, the name
of the rescuer was learned elsewhere
and Mr.. Maclean received the praise
due for his heroic act. Mr.. Maclean
is a son of Mr. Malcolm Maclean Of
this city, and is widely known here.

The day on the river front was a
quiet one There was little shifting
about the harbor. due to the fact that
there are not many vessels in port. An
old towboat captain remarked yester-
day that there was not a vessel at the
Gulf Railroad wharf, something he did
not recall for long time. The Plant
System docks is the loading place for
most of the square-riggers, as large
lot Of the naval stores received here
comes by that road. During the active
cotton season many steamers load
there also. Most of the phosphate rock
exported from Savannah is loaded at
the Plant System docks, where it is
received by their lines from Florida.
The steamship Drottning Sophie ar
rived yesterday from New Castle, and
will load cotton, phosphate rock and
other cargo for Bremen and Hamburg.
The vessel is rather large. being of
3,SZI tons registry but lacks consider
