Early Wednesday morning following the
departure of the Glamorgan, tremendous
| sea struck her, Carrying away the fore
mast, all the ventilators, fore and main
winches, and pipes, bridges and rails, and
flooding all below deck Friday, Sat
urday and Sunday succeeding
the wind and sea increased
in fury, and the vessel hove to. Monday
the weather moderated and a few miles
were made. Tuesday the stor returned
with increased violence, and very high
sea was running. Thos. Conley, chief
engineer, says the boatswain's store rooms,
passengers rooms, all aft rails, deckhouse
abaft the main mast were stove in, the
front of the wheelhouse smashed, and the
steering gear broken, the forward main and
bunker matches burst. The ship was
also opened up fore and
aft, through which the
water poured, stopping the engines and
leaving the vessel in the trough of the sea.
All hands were ordered to bale water with
buckets, but after the sea filled her again
fore and aft at daylight, we got the sails
over the matches and other openings to
keep out the water,but they gave way. The
day was then spent by the passengers and
crew bailing and working the pumps, but
despite all exertions the water gained.
dow he al
boarded up the matches and kept the peo-
pie bailing. One pump was kept going,
the others being broken or choked. That
night we had to give up working the only
pump as the sea was breaking
| heavily over the vessel and
there was no shelter for those
on deck. Friday, the weather again mod
Grating, all hands were called to the pumps
and the damage to the hatch coverings re-
paired. We lost our wood and sail and
now our hope. About noon steamer hove
in sight and bore down. It proved to be
the Republic. Captain Irvine sent
US boat, losing man
launching. That boat took of
some of our men. The sea was running
too high to continue the work of rescue,
but the weather moderating about o'clock,
the Republic launched second boat, and
our ffty-three passengers and the remain
ing officers and crew saved. The captain
and others mentioned above as lost were
swept away in the awful sea that wrecked
the vessel Wednesday morning, at the be-
ginning of the gale.
