Agnes Trainer Has
Narrow Escape

Miss Agnes Trainer, aged Is, of
Edwards street, an employee of the
Hollingsworth & Whitney Co., fell
through the ice in the middle of the
Kennebec river. while on her way to
work early Monday morning and had
a narrow escape from drowning.
During that portion of the year that
the river is frozen over the employees
who live in the north end of the city
walk across the river in the rear of the
college buildings. Miss Trainer, be-
lieving the ice still safe, Monday
morning started across the river alone.
When half way across the ice gave
away and she fell through. With I'M
usual presence of mind, she clutched
on the edge Of the broken ice. She
was thus supporting herself when M,
C. MCGOWAN came into sight on the
river bank and ran to her assistance
He pulled the badly frightened and
almost persisted girl from the chilly
water and assisted her home. She did
not suffer beyond a severe chilling and
fright, but yet did not go to work dur
ing the day. Had not Miss Trainer
caught hold of the hole through which
she fell. and MCGOWAN come along
at that time, there would possibly have
been a different story to tell.
