This picture was made a moment after Mrs. Thomas Penn was swept from the grasp, of her would-be rescuers when the four were marooned on a fooded street of Lagansport, Indiana, by the sudden rise of the Eel River. The prostrate man is John W. Penn, aged 77, the lost wo- man's father-in-law. Ralph Bargerhoff (left) and the woman's, son, Leroy (right), are calling for help, which arrived just in time to rescue them.
