CAPTAIN STOPPED TIE HOLE
= p = . = - q .FJr3I
Old Diver Mended Leak in Holyoke
Dam and Kept His Word,
But Lost His Life.

Last of all they told the story of
old Capt. Conkling and the Holy
oke dana story known to every
diver, relates a writer in Cen.
fury. 1t seems there was a leak
! in this dsnI and tie water was as
Fishing Though With so stronga
suction that: it seemed Certain
death for diver to go near
enough to stop the leak. Yet it
was extremely important that the
leak be stopped-in fact, the
saving of the dam depended on it.
So Capt. Conkling, who was in
charge of the job, induced one of
his divers to go down, and re.
luetantly the man put on his suit,
but insisted on having an extra
rope, and very strong one, tied
around his waist.
whats that for?" asked Conk.
ling.
That's to help get my body out
if the life line breaks" said the
diver.
"Go on and do your work." re.
piled Conkling, who had little use
for sentiment
1t happened exactly as the diver
feared. He was drawn into the
suction of the hole and when they
tried to pull him up both hose and
life line parted and he was
drowned, but they managed to res.
cue his body with the heavy line,
just as he had planned.
Then Conkling called for an.
other diver, but not one respond.
ed. They said they weren't that
kind of fools.
"All right" said the captain in
his businesslike way, "then I'll
go down myself and stop that
hole.o And he called the men to
dress him.
At this time Capt. Conkling was
IS years old, and had retired long
since from active diving. But he
was as strong as a horse still, and
no man had ever questioned his
courage. In vain they tried to dis
suade him. "I'll stop that hole"
said he, and | don't want any ex-
ira rope, either"
He kept his word He went
down and he stopped the hole, but
it was with his dead body, and to,
day somewhere in the Holyoke
dam lie the bones of brave old
Capt. Conkling, incased in full
diving dress, helmet and hose and
life line, buried in that mass OF
masonry. No man ever dared 60
down after his body.
