Neal W. Beattie, 21, student, saved William A. Sargent, 20, from drowning, Bradford, Vermont, January 27, 1906. While others searched for a pole to assist Sargent, who had broken through the ice on the Waits River 25 feet from the bank, Beattie, having removed his skates, started toward him from the bank but broke through. He then swam to Sargent, breaking the ice as he proceeded, and took him back to shallow water. 2488-225
