One ot the occupants was a boy some 7 or 8 years old, who had had a few swimming lessons, and remembered that his master had told him In case of emergency to lie flat upon his back In the water. This precept he coolly carried out; two little girls held on to his legs and a smaller boy rested his head on the plucky youngster's chest. In this way all four floated until help arrived. This must have been quite five minutes, for the men who came to the rescue had to row nearly a mile. What makes the coolness of this small boy the more remarkable is that a grown man and two young women, who were in the boat, failed to keep their heads, and consequently were drowned.
