The ren»arkable heroism of a four-year-old hoy was revealed at Montreal, recently, when searchers found him half-frozen beside the body of his playmate. All night the little fellow had supported his friend in a snow-drift, where they were trapped after wandering from home. Police and searchers who sooured the country for 20 hours were often within 100 yards of the spot where the boys were slowly freezing to death. It was only when it was decided to abandon the search that the body of one of thn" little boys was found in the snow, clasped by his comrade.
