Beautiful sentiment, but a hoax. Never happened.

His name was Fleming, and he was a poor Scottish farmer.
One day, while trying to make a living for his family, he heard
a cry for help coming from a nearby bog. He dropped his tools  
and ran to the bog. There, mired to his waist in black muck,
was a terrified boy, screaming and struggling to free himself.
Farmer Fleming saved the lad from what could have been a
slow and terrifying death. The next day, a fancy carriage
pulled up to the Scotsman's sparse surroundings... An elegantly
dressed nobleman stepped out and introduced himself as the
father of the boy Farmer Fleming had saved. "I want to repay
you," said the nobleman. "You saved my son's life."
