( Gorser, Jr., For Bravery !, I • ■SSnygi! ■ a JmBBKm Hi la ||SXB 3H FRANK P. OORNER, JR. Marietta, March 13.—Word was re ceived in Marietta on Saturday that Frank P. Corner, Jr., son of Mr. and Mrs. Frank P. Corner, will receive a medal for bravery in the near future. It will be remembered that on July 28, 1916, four young people came near losing their lives and would have per ished had not this youth ventured to nudstreaui with an old batteau and rescued them, in the Susquehanna river opposite Marietta about 6.45 in the evening. A party of three young men and a girl from York came lroni the York county where they were camping, in a canoe, and when returning the canoe upset. The river was very stormy at the time and the water was deep. Young Corner with a number of other boys was swim- 1 ming at the time and licard the cries for help. Corner started out in the boat and when he reached them they were about down and out and would have perished had not Gorner reached them when he did. Edgar R. Villee, of Marietta, believing that Corner should be awarded a medal wrote to the Carnegie Hero Fund Commission, and after investigation it was decided j | they could not giv him a modal, KM I it did not come within the scope ofj | the Fund, although they thought the I act was commendable. The Ralston ] Purino Hero Commission of St. Louis, Mo., was next gotten in touch with, and after an investigation, and testi monials given by tho Rev. W. W. Moyer, of the Reformed Church, and Chester W. Rudisill, pharmacist at the McCloskey Drug store, the com mission has voted a medal for Corner, and he will receive it with a great ovation, if tho matter can be pushed through, in the near future. The com mission states: "Application has been made for a Ralston-Purino Hero Medal, for Frank P. Corner, Jr., of Marietta, Pa., as he saved four people from drowning on July 28, 1916, when a canoe in which they were riding upset In the Susquehanna river. Tho case has been thoroughly investigated by the Ralston-Purino Hero Commis-i slon and a bronze hero medal has been voted to Frank Corner. The medal lias been engraved and will go forward soon." Messrs. Villee, Moyer and Rudisill will arrange, with the assistanco of others, for a public demonstration in the near future, to be held in Central Hall, to which the people of the town will ho invited.
