Mr. Fendler, his feet still bandaged, is honored in 1939 in Rye, N.Y., upon his return from his ordeal on Mount Katahdin. Donn Fendler, a Boy Scout who lost his way during a mountain trek in Maine in 1939, embarking on a nine-day survival story that transfixed the nation and inspired generations with its themes of self-reliance and intrepidity, died Oct. 10 at a hospital in Bangor, Maine.
