That morning, however, Chu Shien Yo, the official's son, of whom Ken- neth wrote, induced one of the younger boys to play there with him. Thej'- em- ployed their time on the house boats that were anchored near to shore, jumping The Fountain of Tears. 33 from boat to boat seeing who could jump tlie farthest. Chu Shien Yo's foot slipped and he was carried away by the swift cur- rent. Kenneth, in his room that overlooks the river, heard the boys' cry for help, rushed to the bank, and without a mo-... ment's hesitation plunged to the rescue. He was a strong swimmer but the river carried them down stream, still he man- aged to keep Chu Shien Yo's head above water until help came, but as soon as they grasped the boy, Kenneth's own hold slip- ped and he sank. When they found him he was uncon- scious, and though his friends worked over him for hours, his bright, brave spirit had fled. No comment of mine can add to this beautiful deed of devotion and self-sacri- fice. Through all my sorrow I cannot but glory in my lover's noble death.
