Boys Rescued From Drowning

Millville, August 1.-The bravest
rescue from drowning in this city was
performed by Harry Brown, Jr., a
glass blower, residing in South Mill
vile, when he saved Charles and
William Harrison, of New York city,
in Maurice River.
The boys are visiting relatives in
West Millville, and seeing other boys
go in swimming decided it was easy.
Without ever being in the water before
they disrobed and plunged into the
river. Brown watched them, and a
few minutes later heard shrieks for
help. Without waiting to take off his
shoes. Brown cast off his coat. and
jumping into the river, swan for the
boys.
The Oldest was the nearest. Brown
seized him and with few strokes
brought him to land. William was
unconscious and sinking for the third
time when Brown reached him, but
after great efforts he got ashore with
the second lad also. Too exhausted to
do it himself, Brown instructed the
older brother how TO roll his uncon-
'scious younger brother to get the
water out of him.
Finally, after a half hours hard
work the boy revived, his first words
being "How long was in swimming?''

NINE DROWNED
AT ANGLESEA.

Nine persons were drowned and 81
others were thrown into the raging sea
Sunday afternoon at Hereford Inlet.
near Anglesea, when the yacht Nora

capslzed while crossing the bar at
that place. Of the 81 passengers res.
cued by a volunteer crew, headed by
Captain Ludlam of the Government
Life Saving Station at Hereford, ten,
at night. were reported as still in a
critical condition. At second acci j..
dent at the same spot, an hour later. a
power launch was swamped and one
OF it's occupants drowned.
The double tragedy ended an after.
noon sail in which thirty some Penn.
sylvanians were the participants. All
or the party had gone to Anglesea on
the special Sunday excursion from
Philadelphia. The sea, owing to a
storm. was rough for outside sailing.
out Captain Shivers, importuned by
the excursiorists, decided to risk a
voyage. The Nora went down the
coast some fifteen miles and back. and
except for the seasickness of some of
the passengers, there was no accident
to mar the pleasure of the trip.
AS the day progressed, however,
the fury of the southeast storm in.
creased and by the time the craft
reached Hereford Inlet, waves were
sweeping across the narrow channel
at the entrance. seemingly mountain
high. Owing to the direction of the
wind. Captain Shivers was compelled
to tack while in the narrow strait.
As he hove to a giant comber broke
over the boat, causing it to suddenly
veer and before the craft could be
righted again it was careened by the
following wave, causing it to sudden.
ly turn turtle.
| The accident was witnessed by Gap
tain Ludlam, of the life saving station
at the Inlet His crew is off for the
summer, and with hastily organized
volunteer crew. the big life boat was
launched. There was a terrific strug.
gle to get through the awful surf or
the bar. and several times the rescuers
themselves were in danger of capsiz
ing. Clinging to the bottom of the
yacht Nora B., to cushions and bits
of wreckage. the passengers were do.
ing their best to keep afioat. Twentyt
one persons were pulled into the life
boat, and late last night all but two
bodies had been recovered. The beach
was being patrolled in hope that these
latter will come ashore at the next
tide.
Little intelligence concerning the
Inflated power boat could be obtained
lasg night. This craft was swamped
by breakers at almost the same place
where the Nora B. f1oundered an hour
earlier. Again the wearied amateur
life savers launched the heavy govern.
ment boat and again the battle with
the waves on the bar. They were able
to save five out of the six occupants
of the little naphtha craft.
