Ned Brighton's miraculous preservation of the dam through prayer and physical endurance

Upon discovering a flash flood in a canyon, mail carrier Ned Brighton raced to prevent the destruction of a dam critical to the survival of the village of Bradley. He arrived just as the flood struck and, through persistent physical effort, held a massive boulder against a leaking plank with a crowbar for hours throughout the night, despite numbness and exhaustion, while praying for the safety of the town and his future. He eventually collapsed, but was found by a stranger and his partner who completed his task, and Ned later learned the dam had been saved.
