CHAPTER XII
A STEAMBOAT MAN
Having saved the lady from her uncomfortable if not dangerous position, Jack lost no time in rowing for the shore. Soon he was at the river bank and the lady leaped out of the rowboat and ran to where Randy had placed his dripping burden on the grass.
"My Helen! Is she safe?" asked the lady, anxiously.
"I think so," answered our hero. "But I guess she swallowed some river water."
"Oh, how thankful I am that you went after her."
"It was the only thing to do. I saw she couldn't swim."
