Firemen Rescue Boy From Tree
Camden Courier-Post —
Robert Johnson, 8, of 3330 Atlanta rd., learned the hard way that climbing a tree is only the half of it—you have to come down.
While he and some playmates were coming down a huge tree on a lot behind the home of Mrs. Marion Cowdright, of 1613 Olympia rd., Thursday afternoon, Robert became wedged between two limbs.
Panic-stricken, the lad called to his friends for help. He was heard by Janet Cowdright, 10, who ran to tell her mother.
Mrs. Cowdright telephoned the electrical bureau. Truck Company 2 was sent under Capt. Warren Carter, who with Ladderman Thomas Warren climbed 16 feet up a ladder to reach the boy.
