Inza May Miller, 47, hotel housekeeper, saved Fidelis E. Wicks, 4, from a runaway, Waterloo, Iowa, September 17, 1918. A team of horses hitched to a wagon ran away toward Fidelis, who was playing on a lawn between the curb and sidewalk. Mrs. Miller, seeing Fidelis would be struck, ran about 16 feet to her, picked her up, and threw her out of the path of the horses. Mrs. Miller was struck by the neck yoke of the wagon and was rolled about 20 feet under the wagon. She was severely bruised, her right ankle was dislocated, her right knee and wrist were sprained, and she was disabled for 90 days. Fidelis sustained slight bruises. 19207-1643
