Water While Fishing.
Chadron, May 13. Slight hope
was held Monday for the recovery
of Fremont Bisping, 40 who was
i unconscious for several hours Mon
day following his rescue from the
waters of Whitney lake, near here.

ions succeeded in bringing him to
the surface.
He was fishing from a boat with
L. J. Morrey, when the latter lost
his balance and fell into the lake.
In attempting to get back into the
boat, Morrey upset it, dumping Bis
ping, wearing hip boats and unable
to swim, into the water.
Bisping immediately sank below
the surface in 15 feet of water. Mor
rey yelled for help and dived for his
companion. He succeeded in bring
ing ham to the surface after more
; than five minutes, it was said,
j George Erb, fishing on the bank,
! heard Morrey yell and waded into the
lake with a long pole, whichehe ex
tended to Morrey, who helped Bis
ping, while Erb dragged them to
shore.
When taken from the water. Bis
ping's muscles were too rigid for first
aid pumping to remove the water
from his lungs. His body was wrap
J ped in blankets and placed in the
j warm sun and a doctor was called.
After working more than an hour
the doctor succeeded in getting some
signs of life from the apparently
drowned man.
Bisping is the son of C. H. Bis
ping. recently elected major of Chad
