passage and at n side is a planked
hole Is inches square and six feet
deep. He happened to glance down
and saw the head of the boy.
He reached down and pulled him
out, who on account of the narrow
ess of the hole had been obliged to
stand in a few inches of water for
~ hours. He was weak from lack
of food and from his efforts to climb
out. His cries for help could not be
heard because of the roar of the

An effort is being made to have
the boy entered at the institution for
