His lungs were filled with water and it was thought for a while that he would not recover. But he did, and he is mw his little heroine's hus band. While the. rescue took place in 1916. the medal is not being awarded until this year for the simple reason that during the war the Carnegie institu tion did not have the time to make necessary investigations.
