Had Narrow Escape:^[1]

What almost was a fatal accident occurred Friday at Evangeline Beach, Windsor, when Miss Belle Carver, daughter of Mrs. Rufus Curry, was nearly drowned by being swept beyond her depth while bathing. The young lady was rescued by W. Marshall Black, who rushed to her assistance. When he reached Miss Carver she was going down for the third time, and fainted when reached by her rescuer. Mr. Black called to those on shore for a boat. When the boat reached him, he also became unconscious from fatigue, but both he and Miss Carver were gotten out. Miss Carver was unconscious two hours.

About fifteen years ago Miss Carver's father, Fred Carver, and her eldest brother, Ralph, were drowned in the Stillwater Lakes, near Windsor, - Acadian Recorder.

(Evangeline Beach is a considerable distance from Windsor.)
