Hazleton Plain Speaker; Thursday, June 18, 1891:
Willie, the 10-year-old son of John W. Crellin, a well known contractor of Hazleton, Pa., whose family is boarding at Asbury Park, says yesterday's Philadelphia Press, narrowly escaped drowning Tuesday morning. He was in bathing at the foot of Fourth Avenue, when the undertow carried him beyond his depth. He was unable to swim, and and called loudly for help. His screams were heard by a number of workman who were engaged in repairing founder Bradley's board walk. Four of them went to his rescue, and after much difficulty brought him safely ashore. He was unconscious at the time. He was taken home, medical aid summoned, and is now out of danger.
