ROMANTIC MARRIAGE
ENGINEER ON THE LILY TO
WE'D GIRL WHOSE LIFE
HE SAVED.

Samuel Critchfield, of Canton, No,
chief engineer of the lighthouse ten
der Lily, now in winter quarters here,
and known to river men as Young
Scritch," to distinguish him from his
father, "Old Scritch," also an engi-
neer, will be msrried Wednesday to
Miss Efiie Ysnsey, Of Cape Girardesu.
NO., whom he saved from drowning
in the st. Louis harbor three years
ago, when she fell from the deck Of
the steamer Chester.
Miss Yansey and Chief Engineer
Critchfield were not acquainted when
she embarked for St. Louis on the
trip that was to prove SO eventual at
the arrival. They do not remember
having seen each other, until Engineer
Critchfield saw Miss Ysnsey standing
very close to the edge of the deck and
moved nearer that he might be within
helping distance should she fall over
board as result of the quick motions
of the boat in landing.
She did fall and Engineer Critch-
field was the first TO her rescue. 1t
was but bit of daring swimming in
the close quarters between the wharf
and the moving boat. 1t is understood
the young lady was at the time en-
gagged to marry young man in her
home town but broke it in favor of
her rescuer.
