                  TRIBUTE TO ELIZABETH ``BOO'' MURRAY

 Mr. SMITH of New Hampshire. Mr. President, today I show my 
support to Elizabeth ``Boo'' Murray of Danville, NH. Her heroic efforts 
saved the life of an elderly neighbor.
  Walking through her Danville neighborhood one day in June, Elizabeth 
noticed flames and smoke coming from her neighbor's house. Realizing 
that the elderly woman was likely to be still inside, Elizabeth raced 
in to save her. She found her in the home and removed her from danger. 
Although her neighbor later died of injuries she sustained, Elizabeth 
put her life in the foreground to rescue the life of another.
  I commend you Boo for your commitment to life. You are an example of 
heroism to New Hampshire residents and the nation alike. I am honored 
to represent you in the U.S. Senate.
