Goven- lock's milldam., they both fell ' into the pond, v hich is 4olue 12 or 14 feet ueep. The cries of a third, ts'ho was on the 'shore, attracted the attention of Mr. Govenlock's son, a little lad of 11 years . . of age, who was standing in the mill. He ran at once to the bank, and by the time he reached it Was divested ofhis clothing, and in he plunged, striking out manfully for the spot where they had fallen in, which waS some 20 or '45 yards distant. He seized the first he came to, 'which was his sister, a girl of 'seven'years, Old rot Much lighter than himself, and conveyed her safely to the shore; and back he went for his cousin, a giri of the same age.. 11 dived, but could not see her, for she had gone down the -second times Dowtt he went again, when- he saw her slowly rising to the ,top once more. She was soon taken hold of, and borne safely to the shore; but the vital spark had almost fled, and it was a tong time before she recovered. However, both are now well again. . It is but seld.m that even those of mature .vears perform auch feats of true hero-, ism ; and when we consider a small boy of 11 years of age ringing two of seven, years respectively ut of a pond 124or 14 feetdeep, 'for distance of 20 or 2,1 yards, we say tha .the name of Govenlock is '-wo by of an honorable place in the roll of Caaadian juvenile heroes Long may he live to display the same presence of -mind and courage • that he did on this oCeasion.---Begforest 'Correspondence of Beacon. 11 • BIBLE SOCIETY MEETI/41.—A Mee,- -ing• • of the Seaforth Branch' of the Bible.
