SAMUEL COPP
THRICE HERO
At COLONIAL
One of Rescued Was
Not ReSuSCitated for
20 Minutes.

Three times a hero is Samuel
Copp, of 1907 Thi.ty-third street
northwest, who accomplished the re-
markable feat on Sunday afternoon
of saving three young Washington
lads from a watery grave off the
shore of Colonial Beach.
The three boys who owe their
lives to Copp's quick aid are All
Noyes, of 4O4 South Capitol street;
Lloyd Prather, of 3O4 @ street
northeast, and Paul Robey, of 4i6
South Capitol street.
Sharing the honorS with Copp is
young Prather, who in a desperate
endeavor to save the life of his
chum, Al NoyeS, was himself over
come, sinking twice before Copp
reached the two.
Paul RObey, who was in bathing
a short distance from his compan-
ions, became so frightened by their
cries for help that he lost nerve and
was floundering helplessly in the
water when Copp reached him
after placing the other two in q boat
Close Call for Noyes.
News Of the heroism CT Mr.. Copp be-
came known in Washington today
through several eyewitnesses. When
rescued by Copp young Noyes, who is
about eighteen years of age. was so
nearly drowned that Copp and several
cnlookers worked upon him twenty min
utes before he regained consciousness.
Prather, who is seventeen, was also in
an exhausted condition, but was resus-
citated in less time. Robey. who is
the youngest Of the three, recovered in
short order.

the Washington Railway and Electric

the occurrence to a Times reporter this
