A six year old girl named Para Pease wandered onto ice cakes on the Connecticut River near Thompsonville. As she drifted toward the Enfield falls, an aeroplane piloted by Charles S Jenkins swooped in. He reached the girl just before the falls, lifting her to safety as the icecake toppled away. The scene ended with the airplane landing on the riverbank and the child returned home. The report notes a lasting warning about lung injuries and promotes Ballard's Horehound Syrup. Later, a lecture at Oregon Agricultural College discussed disease resistance in crops.
