JohnW. Connell. of" Hillsboro,
and J. 11. Wescott of Gaston,
are today more than thankful
that they both are alive, and
both are thankful that Connell
wm raised a sixfooter.' for In
thnt extra height of Connell Is
the reason thst both are alive
Instead of now having a little
marker at the ends of two
mounds. They went bunting
with a party Saturday night
and started across the lake in a
small boat early Sunday morn
Ing. before it waa fairly light
When the two men reached tbe
center of the lake the boat sunk
with their weight
The lake wu lust shallow
enough to let Connell's mouth
and nose remain out or drink,
while Wescott waa obliged to
hanir on to the boat In this
manner they held up for a half
hour, calling to meir companion
for aid. The others were a half
mile awav. and. hearing the
shouts thought it came from a
close-by farm house. The boat
waa finally propelled by Connell
150 yards, and they finally came
to a place where they had to re
main, or get in over Connell's
head. At this Juncture Frank
Srhulmerich heard their cries ot
a ft -
distress, and rowoa over, in com
psny with Ole. who Unas to the
fa i for the hunting natty.
When thev arrived they found
their boat would not bold the
four, and Leonard Brown and
Fied Sewe came to their roller.
The hunters were taken ton
. a a a. a. . i
arm house, sirippea oi ineir
wet clothes, and wrapped in
blankets. Both were nearly
iMriahed and their companions
worked with them several hours
to prevent a collapse.
