Hugh Kirk Saved Little Girl From Drowning Saturday.

Alice Potts, a little girl about 10 years old, was fishing along the river hank near the residence of Trustee H. W. Wood Saturday afternoon and fell into the river. The banks are steep and the water is running high and the child would have drowned had assistance not been at hand. Hugh Kirk was near and jumped into the river and -rescued the child.
