we publish the following authentic
statement from one Of the crew :4s /.

each to defray our expenses while
there, and on Monday we received
the balance ofthe money appropri-

to take Us to our respective homes.
During the whole time we met
with no injury whatever, but were
kindly treated in every way, shape
and manner. At Mobile, we were
asked by tie Captain whether any 81
