Nora V. Dunlea, 14, schoolgirl, died helping to save Louise G. Griffin, 13; Catharine Ford, 10, and Mary Daugherty, 10, from drowning, West Gloucester, Massachusetts, August 6, 1910. Nora swam to the three girls, who were struggling together in the deep channel of the Little River, and was grasped by them. Another girl came to them about this time, and all five bobbed up and down in the water, until a man reached them and supported all but Nora, who helped him with the others. Two men arrived in a rowboat, and, while Nora helped the men get the other girls aboard, the boat foundered, and Nora was drowned. The men and four girls were rescued. 5630-477
