SAVED A Lad
FROM DROWNING

A small boy by the name Of Rae
narrowly escaped death last week
while swimming in the sheep pond at
the A. G.
The little Rae lad in company with
some companions went to the sheep
pond just north of the A. G. farmhouse
where they proceeded to strip for a
swim. The pond is about fourteen feet
deep in the middle and the lads fioated
a big raft out into the center OF the
pool Of water.
In the midst Of the fun the Rae
boy fell from the raft and in coming
up he arose under the raft and was
not able to reach the surface OF the
water. Several of his companions
could see his figure under the timbers
but were too scared to pun him out.
The next time the lad came UP he
missed the raft, but was so full of
water that he could not think for him.
self and went down again. The other
boys in the party yelled and C. ".
Kennedy, the head of the Az c.. farm.
hurried to the scene OF the swimming.
Before the lad came up again, Mr.. Ken
nsdy was in the water and was pulling
the boy out when he reached the sur
face again.
The boy was put through the first
aid to the drowning and he was soon
restored to consciousness. 1T is
thought that he would have drowned
had 1T not been for the timely appear
ance of Mr.. Kennedy.
The first name of the Rae boy could
not be learned.
