WOMAN SAVED BY DOG
AN AMAZING ESCAPE. When a party of visitors to Llangollen were paddling at Berwyn, where the River Dee flows over boulders under the famous chain bridge, Miss Edith Dale, of Bayfel Street, Seaforth, slipped and was carried into the rapids (says a London paper). The alarm was raised, and Mr and Mrs Robinson, of Sheffield, sent their retriever dog to the rescue. It seized Miss Dale, who clung to it, and was safely brought to the bank. A mother trying to save her child was recently drowned there in similar circumstances, as the waters go deep under rocks and into whirlpools.
