HELPED TO RESCUE
 COUPLE AT WATCH HILL
A. Ross McMahon Happened Along
 in Nick of Time.

A. Ross McMahon, formerly princi- pal at the Bean Hill school, and now staying for a time at Watch Hill, par ticipated in an exciting rescue last week there, when he helped pull from the water a soldier and young wom. an who had been holding on to the Block Islands pier for some time, waiting for help, and were nearly ex- hausted. MT. McMaIlon arrived just in time to help a soldier friend of the man in the water get the two out of their perilous position.
 The two soldiers, with two young women, had been sitting out on the end of the pier, and the girls had been showing how far they could bend over catching their feet under string piece as they leaned out ovver the water In doing this one of the girls ripped of the heel of her shoe and went over into the water. One of the soldiers went after her, the other girl in the party promptly fainting on the dock, and when the remaining soldier found he couldn't pull his friend up he went after a rope, leaving the soldier and the girl in the water holding fast to a spile.
 MT. McMahon heard the shouts and came over from his cottage to see what the matter was, stumbling over the girl on the pier, who was still in a faint. While he was thinking he was in on a murder case he heard splash ing in the water and saw the soldier and the other girl, too exhausted even to shout. He grabbed them and held them up until the other soldier arrived with a rope, when the two were hauled up to safety. About this time the coast guard was coming in and as the sol- diers had no business to be away from the fort and didn't want to be diseov- cred by the coast guard, they carried the fainting girl along the pier and onto the shore, where they left her while they hid from the guard and left it for the young women to account as best they could for the excitement.
