A well was in the yard of the center. The well was only eight inches across, and a rock always covered it. But children had moved the rock. When Jessica fell, and she fell right into the well.
Jessica’s mother reached inside the well, but she couldn’t feel Jessica. She ran to the phone and called 911 for help.
Men from the fire apartment arrived. They discovered that Jessica was about 20 feet down in the well. For the next hour, the men talked and planned Jessica’s rescue(营救). Then they told Jessica’s parents their plan.
“We can’t go into the well. ” they said “It’s too narrow. So, we’re going to drill(钻) a hole next to the well. Then we ‘ll drill a tunnel across Jessica. Then we’ll bring her up through the hole. ”
The man began to drill the hole on a Wednesday morning. “We’ll reach Jessica in a few hours ”, they thought. The men were wrong. They had to drill through the solid rock. Two days later, on Friday morning, they were still drilling,. And Jessica McClure was still in the well.
During her days in the well, Jessica sometimes called her mother. Sometimes she slept, sometimes she cried, and sometimes she sang.
All over the world people waited for the news of Jessica. They read about her in the newspapers and watched her rescue on TV. Everyone worried about the little girl in the well.
At 8 P. M. on Friday, the men finally reached Jessica and brought her up from the well. Jessica was dirty, hungry, thirsty and tired. Her foot and forehead was badly injured. But Jessica was alive.
