ship lying by her. The Pepperell appears to have
passed on her way"

passenpers'l three vessels hove in sight, iistin'
ruished their hnils. and consequently the captains
of those ships must have clearly seen the duty !

and did not reflect that their fellow-men stood in
need of their assistance. / c0hJorted myself ;ciM
