were busy Friday; for it was just thirty
years ago Friday morning that the
steam barge Scion FL. johnson and her
consort was beached south of Kenosha
and her crew of twelve men rescued
after display of heroism and personal
bravery which makes up one of the
most interesting pages of the history
of Kenosha. It is all written out on
the log of the Kenosha Life Saving
Station, over which Captain B. G.. Cam
eron presided at that time. It was
just after ten O'Clock on a gray morn
ing that the local station was notified
that barge and her consort had gone
on the beach at Benton Station. The
roads were heavy and the equipment of
the life saving station was taken to
Benton with a great deal Of trouble
Everybody in Kenosha went to Benton
Station that day and most everybody
seems to have had a hand in assisting
in the rescue of the sailors from their
perilous position. The annual union
thanksgiving Day service was broken
up by the rush Of people to the little
station south of Kenosha.
The barge lay about a mile north of
Benton and six hundred feet from the
beach. She had been beached early
in the morning and her cabin went by
the board just after nine CLOCK carry
ing out into the lake the food and clo-
thing and everything else belonging to
the crew. When reached by the rescu-
ers the members of the crew were all
huddled in the bow of the barge with
the heavy sea washing over the deck
and threatening them. 1t was the
first time that the Lisle gun was
ever called into service off Kenosha
and the late Gilbert M. Simmons fired
the first shot and missed the wrecked
boat. Then Captain Cameron took a
hand and shot the rope over the bow
of the boat. The men were pulled
