The New York Truth Of July 2 dis
plays . cut representing the head OF
Charles A.. Dana. editor Of the Sun,
With the word coward" branded across
the forehead. In its issue Of the day
previous II asked the question whether
he was q hero or . coward in connection
with the Savannah disaster. and
rather made him out to bs the latter.
In this issue Of the I'd Ii publishes the
testimony Of . lady passenger on board
that Ill iatsd steamer to prove that he
really was . ''oontsmptibls coward" and
. most shsmslsssly sslash one at that.
The lady In question il young. hand

with Mr.. Dana for years. We extract
from her story a. told in Truth:

ran 10 the closet containing The LIE pre-
servers and threw out Q number 10 the per-
sous about me, and took one myself. 1
fslt very calm and thoroughly collected. l
went up 70 Mr.. Dana and asked him II my
life preserver Vas on right. He said that
Il wss not, and hxsd 10 for me. He then
told me 10 keep calm - there was no
danger.
81 felt % comfortable then that I went
down stairs 70 lock altar my baggage.
When I came ON deck again Mr.. Dana told
me TO 10 Aft, which I did. Indeed. l fol-
lowed him about mechanically almost. he
was the only person on the boat whom 1
knew, and 1 fslt that hs would protect me

1--WE we're standing together and I put
my foot on the railing - II to Jump over,
when he said:
".Dop't Jump yet
"I complied with his request and stood
beside him. AL this time people were
jumping overheard, and the excitement
was almost uncontrollabls. still retained
my presence Of mind. however. - did MI.
Dana; In fact. ! never saw one who ap-
psarsd cooler. His very s~oolness inspired
me with confidence. and I said 10 him:
"'Nr. Dana. can you svimf'
"'Oh. yes; very WE'LL hs replied.
"By this time the flames were literally
tapping up the boat. Almost all the peo-
pie about US had disappeared. and this was
really 70 our advantage. for IL left the way
clear and avoided the danger Of . crowd
lssping overheard together. II nov be-
cams necessary for all TO leave the boat.
and I said 70 Mr.. Dana: 49,.
"'Plssss. Mr.. Dana. can't I 60 with

Every one for himself he replied.
and Immediately jumped overheard.
''For . momentI WAS stupehrd. Here
was my ideal. the man who lad always
commanded my most unqualified admirs-
ton. deserving me. I Was nothing TO Mr..
Dana. but ! had always 80 associated him
with everything brave and ohivalrous that
his conduct almost paralyzed me. When
he jumped overheard he did not turn once

give me q word Of encouragement. he
