and keep the party together. AS soon as
this was done they proceeded or their
journey, but had not gone forty rods when
it was found that the stays were not prop

menced backing water without lessening
speed. An effort was made to loosen the
stays. The bow line was let out until the
Josephine had swung around sideways,
when it caught in knot and she capsized
and sunk in eighty feet of water in halt
minute. AS the boat tipped over every

were taken out OF the water by her and
