Nelson A. Andrews, 33, engineer, died attempting to save Valentine F. Frederick, 24, iceman, from drowning, Meriden, Connecticut, February 28, 1913. (See case of VALENTINE F. FREDERICK.) Andrews ran over a quarter-mile to the scene, and with a companion crossed the ice toward Frederick. As he neared the hole, he crawled and then lay flat and worked his way to the edge of the hole, holding to the hand of his companion, who also lay on the ice. While he was reaching for Frederick, as the latter sank the last time, the ice broke, and he too fell into the water near Frederick and was drowned. 11224-803
