Note 3 — APPENDIX A. DIRECTIONS FOR RESTORING THE APPARENTLY DEAD FROM DROWNING.
Reading edition
A good plan is to turn the body gently over for a few seconds with the face to the ground, one of the hands being placed under the forehead. By this means the water will run out of the mouth and the tongue will fall forward, leaving the breathing opening free. On no account should the body be held up by the feet as has been advised by some old writers.
