THE ADDRESS To Mr. Davidson, Fever!!ham, Dear Jim : â€" .\ number of your friends have gathered here thia evening to wit. ness the dtting stijuel to an incident that took pl»ce on July 18th of last year. The icrident referred to was the occasion of your rescuins one of cur young boys, Simuel Shor.t.from drowning iu the mill pond at Feversham. The rescue was only effected by prompt and courageous action on your part when a moment of hesitancy or fear for personal consequen- ces would have meant cot on!y tba loss of hie life but w.)uld have brouiiht untold sorrow to th-? home of his parents. Such behaviour as you showed on that day merits grejter reward than is iu our pewer to bestow, yet « e would have you understand that we apprec ate such noble qualities as T'>u possess in one c f the youne men of our community ; for to more commendable tjuality is it piissible to possess than the reaoiuess to endanger Self, if need be, in tho interest! of ethers. It was indeed a heroc acti.n and a worthy precedent f.ir others to emulate in future if au occasion should ever demand it. On ih.i rec' mmendation of the Municipal Council of Orprey, which in iti public capacity is ever d.sirous cf seeing the deserving rewarded, the Royal Humane Society has forwaided one of its hith'y prized medals for presentation to you. In the winning of Ih-s medal you h.avo ju^t reason to De prcud for no such medal is given haph-vzardly, Lut is only awarded in the most deserving of cases. W iih this medal is extended our heartiest congratulations and may i( also convey our prida in you ';hat you have thus so indelibly inscribed your name in the annals of Fam"). Signed on behalf c-f the Municipal Council of Osprey and ycur many friends who are desirous of showing their appriciation of your moat pra sewurthy conduct (Sed ) IRWIN MORUlSttK, Head of the Municipality cf Dspny.
