Marion E. Reck, 13, schoolgirl, died attempting to save Dorothy A. Cavanagh, 11, from drowning, Sunapee, New Hampshire, July 30, 1919. While wading in Sunapee Lake, Dorothy suddenly stepped into deep water and struggled eight feet from the bank. Another girl started toward Dorothy, but she got into deep water too and could not swim. Marion, who could swim, closely followed the other girl into the water, but she disappeared under the surface almost as soon as she entered deep water and was drowned. Dorothy and the other girl were later rescued by others. 21333-1675
