HUMANE SOCIETY.
At a late meeting of the TrusteeS o
the Humane Society, information of the
following event given to them, and
fully authenticated.
On the 26th ps March last, about I
o'clock, P.M. as Mr. Stephen Twiftand
Mr. Hopeftill Bradlee, both furthers of
the GarriCon at the Castle, were fiihing in
a small c#noe, between I.ong-Ifland head
and the east point of Speftatle-Iflatid,
they Were fuddtnly overtaken with a hea
vy squall of wind, which induced them
to attempt gaining the shore \<?ith all pof
ilble speed. While they were endeavor
ing to accompli fh this, against an high
sea and a severe fret of wind, they descri
ed something at the distance of two or
three hundied yards from them, which
they soon concluded to be the head of a
man. They instantly determined to go
to his relief, hazardous as the attempt
was ; and tacking about soon came near
him. Here they paused for a moment,
and with great presence of mind required
from the man an absolute and sacred prfl
mife, that he would not attempt to toufch
their canoe except in the manner which
they fllould prefcri'oe—as seizing it iiji
prudf ntly might destroy them as well V.3
himielf.
This prctr.ife he made them—and wfytn
they nrae to him he defiit'd them to saVe
his little son, of about fix years i;ld,whora
he was holding 111 his arms. Him they
took in at the head of the canoe. Mv.
Twist then turning it round.and dii'eqt
fng Bradlee with the child to lie down in
the head, he drew the man gently into the
canoe, at the stern, and then for the
shore of Speftacle-lfland, wliicn, nctwith
ftanding tfie violence of the wind, they
reached in fafety. Here they were re
ceived by the people of the I(land with
the utmost "kindness and hospitality, and
after di'.ers applicatlpns the child, who
appeared perfeft'y dead when brought on ,
shore, was restored to animation.
The persons saved, were Mr. Thomas
Barnes of this town, and. his son. Mr.
Barnes relates, that the boat in wliich he
and his ftsn with Mr. Wiliam Brown and
Mr. John Dailey (both alfo.of this town)
were, was funk at the firft coming up of
the squall; that he caught his son as the
boat was finking,,and providentially fe;zed
the top of the mad, (which was two feet
under water) with one hand—by this he
held fact, while he clasped his child to his
bosom with the other. In this fituatiou
he remained more than half an hour, be
fore the canoe came to his relief. The
two men, Mr. Brown and Mr. Daily, at
tempted to swim to Long-Island, but fail
ed in the attempt, and were both drown
ed.—
TheTruftees gave to Mr.Twi(l> (who
was principally active in the bufijiefs) a
reward of ten dollars; and to Ms:,
lee a reward of five dollars—lor their
lial exertions on this occafior. —ani direct
ed this account to be published to their
honor, to induce others to imitate'the-hu
manity, enterprise, and prudence cf these
worthy men.
