Miss Forrest walked over the top of
the well to hang sonie clothes. on a
line when the covering broke and 1
she was precipitated into the, well
in which" there 'Was, enough water to
drown a person. 'There is the old
log - of a pump in the partially -filled"
well and Wee Forrest clung to this
with desperation the water reaching
almost to her' mouth. Mrs Simps_s'
heard the cries the girl outside
but mistook them for other noises
and did trot go out until she her rs!
her name called. ' Mrs. Simpson was
unable to pull Miss Forrest out of
the well and went over to Geneva
