Act op Gallantry for which a Certificate op Merit

has been awarded by the Society,

32.—Constable Leonard J. Cookery, aged twenty-seven, of Wellington, at great personal risk rescued Arthur O’Keefe and Robert Gilpin from drowning at the Queen’s Wharf, Wellington, at 11 p.m. on the 11th August, 1900. The e.s. “ Mapourika ” was casting off to sail, when O’Keefe, who was under the influence of drink, tried to board the boat, which was under way, Gilpin, who was also under the influence of liquor, assisting him. Both men fell into the harbour. Noticing the accident, Constable Cookery divested himself of his great coat, slid down to the stringer, took hold of O’Keefe, and, after some struggling with the drowning men, swimming on his back, held Gilpin on his chest and O’Keefe by one hand; assistance arrived, and all three men were hauled on to the wharf. There was a strong current running from the vessel’s propeller, which was going astern, greatly adding to the risk taken by Cookery. Certificate on vellum.
