land and had reached Cape Farewell on the right
and the Straits Of Belle Isle on the left We were
just entering that far-of northern sea when the
storm overlook US. Dark clouds hung over US and
the wind came with tenfold fury. The sea rolled 10
mountains and the proud ship seemed but q toy
amid those tremendous pillows. Far up on the
mast ct the lookout the sailor was heard
to cry IAN Iceberg on the starboard
bow |" IAN iceberg on the larbOard bOwp; The
deck Officer called TO the helmsman, "Port the
helm-steadyW and the sailors at the wheel heard
and Obeyed. The captain spent q sleepless night
pacing the deck cabin. The Ofcers were aroused,
| for there was danger ahead. The more than three
hundred precious souls on board the ship Congress
and the provisions for the Polar expedition were In
peril. IceberRs large the Capitol were coming
against the vessel and eternal vigilance was the
price OF safety. And so 1t Is all through human
life. HOW grand Is ne who keeps his hearth Fortunes
may depart loved ones pass away; but blessed the
man or woman who keeps the heart OF the Lord
Jesus Christ.
