TO LOUIS THE SWAN, WHO, WITH

OUTSTANDING COURAGE AND COMPLETE

DISREGARD FOR HIS OWN SAFETY,

SAVED THE LIFE OF

APPLEGATE SKINNER.

Louis took off his slate and wrote, “Thank you for this medal. It is a great honor.”

But he thought to himself, “I’m beginning to get overloaded with stuff around my neck. I’ve got a trumpet, I’ve got a slate, I’ve got a chalk pencil; now I’ve got a medal. I’m beginning to look like a hippie. I hope I’ll still be able to fly when my flight feathers grow in again.”

That night when darkness came, Louis blew the most beautiful taps he had ever blown. The man who had brought the medal was listening and watching. He could hardly believe his ears and his eyes. When he returned to the city, he told people what he had seen and heard. Louis’s fame was growing. His name was known. People all over were beginning to talk about the swan that could play a trumpet.
