THE
RESCUE.
Local People witnessed Brave
Deed of Life Guards at
Ocean Grove.

People from this city who are sum-
ing rescue in the surf yesterday af-
ternoon. But for the prompt and
efficient action of the life guards at
Lillagore's pavilion three Ocean
Grove girls would have undoubtedly
lost their lives. The undertow, which
has changed from towards the fish
ing pier to directly towards the sea,
carried Miss Olive Mills out beyond
her depth, and she was struggling
with the waves when one of her COM
panions, Miss Deane, noticed her
plight and went to her aid. The sea
was too much for the two, and third
companion, Miss Mary Lavery, join
ed them. Before the girls realized
their peril they were in imminent
danger of drowning. The life guards,
TAYLOR and Douglas, struck out to-
wards them, but the girls were so far
beyond the ropes that before help
reached them they had gone down.
The guards, two husky football
lads from Wesleyan college, gathered
the girls in, and Taylor held up Miss
Mills, who was the farthest out,
while Douglas swan to shore with
the other two He then went back
out to where Taylor was Struggling
with Miss Mills The life line was
tried, but was too short to reach so
far out to sea, and the lady was
brought in on the waves. A fairly
rough sea was running at the time,
and it was only by the most desper-
ate efforts that the girls were saved.
Once Miss Mills slipped from the
grasp of the guard and he had to
dive after her.
The girls were taken at once to
the rescue room where aid was given
them. The guards were completely
worn out with their battling against
the waves, and were pretty well filled
with sea water themselves. The girls
were worked over for several hours
and were later taken to their homes
in Ocean Grove. Miss Mills suffered
the most seriously, having turned
blue by the time she was taken from
the water. Nat Thompson rendered
very efficient service in the resuscita-
tion.
The crowd at the grounds at the
time was very much excited. Many
women tainted, and numbers of the
bathers ran around the sands with
no idea of what should be done. A
young negro rushed into the water
but was soon overcome by the waves
and had to be dragged out by the
Wurtz boys. One young man tainted
while in the shallow water and was
rescued by j. A. Hamilton.
The guards last night were in
clined to minimize their share in the
affair. but it is said by eye witnesses
that it was owing only to theil
prompt and unfaltering heroism thai
the lives of the young ladies were
saved. The mother of one of the
girls came down to thank the boys
but as she attempted to embrace
them they skidooed for shelter. TheS
could stand for the waves all rlght
but the embraces of the mother were
| Too many for them.
