Deserves a Medal

     On Sunday the yacht, Eva, on her way from Hamilton to her new home at Sandusky, Ohio, went ashore on the bar at Ryerson's Island.  A very heavy sea was rolling from the southeast, and not only were the lives of the crew in danger, but the boat in imminent danger of breaking up. The yacht, Edith, owned by Mr. W. E. Tisdale, of Simcoe, went to the rescue. Mr. W. C. McCall bravely carried a line to the distressed yacht, which, after much labor, was released from her perilous position.
