Of the sea abounds. One of the most

BY a special act Of Congress or 1919
Ida Lewis became the official keeper of
the light. Her father had been stationed
there for many years. An expert oars
man and swimmer the woman light
keeper never hesitated when lives were
imperilled. but rowed out into the Storm
lest sea to effect a rescue.
Between 1867 and 1904 she saved
twenty-five lives. and won medals from
the Government and from various pri-
vate organizations Her boat. the Res-
