Myron L. Reynolds, 15, schoolboy, died saving Philip E. Rollins, 9, from drowning, Riverside, Maine, May 19, 1911. Myron swam to Philip, who, unable to swim, had called for help when he got into water over his depth in Seven Mile Brook, 25 feet from the bank. He grasped Philip’s wrist with his left hand, and both went beneath the surface momentarily. When they came up, Myron released his hold and pushed Philip toward the bank. He tried to reach Philip a second time, as if to push him toward the bank again, but sank and did not reappear. Philip was assisted to the bank by boys who extended pieces of timber to him. 6674-560
