Harry flrewer were rescued Satur
day after an hour and a halt In the
Icy waters of the lake, where they
clung to a capsized boat. Mr. Shep
herd's body was recovered and
brought to Ilend Sunday. He Is sur
vived by his widow and an Infant
daughter.
Accompanied by Norval Springer
of this city. Shepherd set out by nu'o
yesterdar morning for Square laVC.
From Shuttle lake tbo trip had to be
made by boat and on foot and, des
pite the fact that a hlghwlnd waa
blowing, they started across the
lake, taking with them 20-year-old
Harry Brewer, who had bra left tat
charge of the Suttle lake resort.
the boat refuted to work and one of
the oars managed by Springer slip
ped from the lock and the boat
swung broadside to the wind, ship
ping water so rapidly that tho occu
pants, equlppl only with hats for
balling, were constantly losing
ground.
"Sho's filling," Shepherd called,
and rising from his seat Jumped ov

rubber hip boots and a sheepskin
coat, struck out strongly for shore.
a dlstancec ot a llttlo more than SO
yards. When more than half way to
the shore and only 35 feet from a
point where he would have found a
gravel beach underfoot he sank.
In Jumping overboard Shepherd
capsized tbe craft and twice In the
next hour and a half Springer's life
was saved by young Brewer, the only
one of the two who was able to
swim.
Alternately immersed In tbe Icy
waters ot the lake and clinging to
the bottom of tbe boat, they were
Anally rescued when William Young,
proprietor of the resort, arrived at
the boat landing with F. E. Howard
of Bend, and, hearing calls for holp.
put out on the lake. Springer' was
unconscious tor three hours after his
rescue.
The fact that the motor slipped
from the boat at tbe time It was ov
erturned is believed to have saved
the life ot at least oue ot the surviv
ors, as tbe craft otherwise would
boon unablo to sustain tho combined
weight of Springer and Drowor.
