NEAR DROWNING AT
GRAND BENI)
The second near drowning accident
to take place at Grand Bend within
a few weeks oceurred an Sunday,
,
when Mr. Art ()lilies, of London, one
of the best known of London's oma-
1 'li'e of Larry
saved the t
Cour athletes,
Dunn, of Detroit, when lie swam a-
bout 200 feet out into the lake a`xad
brought Dunn, who was drowning,
back to shore.
Dunn, a member! of Paul Wilson's
o,n playing la =ing at the Casino, was
bathing near the pier. It is thought
he ventured out past his depth in
chasing a rubber ball, with which he
and some companions were playing.
His friends thought little of his go-
ing out into the water, as an bar ex-
tends e
di a
k
tends for some st xxce into the
at this point and they were under the
impression that he was still in shal-
low water. IIe apparently stepped
off the baa; into deep water before
he realized how far out he was, His
predicament was noticed after he be-
gan to flounder and had sunk once.
Gillies, who is a good swimmer, seiz-
ed a lifebuoy from: one of the boxes
on the beach and ,set out to the place
where the drowning Haan was fight-
ing to regain the sandbar.
After a struggle he managed to
place the buoy around Dunn and tow
hint to the beach.
Dr. John Sscraltt, who was sum-
moned to the:scene, applied restore-
tive. measures, and after he and sev-
eral others had worked over the vic-
tion for a lengthy period he filially
recovered consciousness and was tak-
en to his home.

trict. It will have twb' outlets to
Lake ,Huron, making it a sort of
canal about 150 feet Vide and with
a level clay bottoin. Extensive boat-
ing can be carried on from Grand
