James W. Blaylock, 34, miner, saved Arthur E. McReaken, 29, miner, and attempted to save an indeterminate person, or persons, from suffocation, Panama, Illinois, November 11, 1910. (See case of JOHN J. WILBER.) Blaylock was one of Wilber’s companions and was able to crawl only 100 feet. He lay with his face close to the floor and, having revived somewhat, had started to crawl back to good air when Wilber called for assistance. He returned and helped drag Wilber. A few moments after leaving Wilber, Blaylock’s other companion became too weak to go farther, and Blaylock dragged him to where the air was better. They then both lost consciousness. Blaylock was taken from the mine later and revived. 8077-634
