almost without warning, black wall
seemed to rise on the water and q mighty
wave came rolling in that fairly lifted the

the achooner went down like going over q

Capt, Jswett says they were buried in

wave with sails torn from her and with
the crown work Of the top mast gone, the
schooner encountered second wave, but
nothing to be compared TO the first. A
terrific gale followed, A sailor says that
he happened to look ahead Just as the

provides that lesse-holders may apply to
