Heroic Lake Erie rescue earns nine life savers medals
The October 11 rescue off Cleveland involved the life saving crew of the Janson striving to aid a distressed carrier in a hurricane. Despite the lifeboat capsizing, Charles L. Learned was saved after being pulled from the water and treated at the customs house. Learned later recovered enough to rejoin the crew, though his life as a rescuer ended by later years. He attributes recovery to Dr Williams Pink Pills for Pale People, praising their healing and noting a late address at Pulaski, N. Y. The article promotes the pills and lists purchase details from the Dr Williams Medicine Co.
