The fire department
and local emergency squads...
1:15:08
have been on the job
for many hours...
1:15:10
but the difficulty
seems to be...
1:15:12
that the well is quite narrow
and the surrounding--
1:15:15
No, wait, wait!
1:15:18
It looks like he has something.
1:15:19
He's tugging the rope.
1:15:21
They're raising the rope
very, very slowly.
1:15:25
They seem to be
close to a rescue.
1:15:29
Police have her. Stand by.
1:15:31
We're coming to you live.
1:15:35
Don? Don, is--Don...
1:15:39
Oh, God, this is terrible.
1:15:40
Ladies and gentlemen...
1:15:42
The child is not alive.
1:15:46
Polly Phelps is dead.
1:15:49
After all the efforts
and prayers...
1:15:53
the little girl is dead.
1:15:56
This is tragic.
1:15:59
Just tragic.
1:16:05
We are going to end our
broadcast, ladies and gentlemen.
1:16:09
I know that all America shares
the grief of the Phelps family.
1:16:15
This has been a sudden,
unexpected human tragedy.
1:16:58
Good evening,
and Happy New Year.
