A Sailors Miraculous E.cape.

IMPRISONED THIRTY-sIX HOURS IN THE HOLD or A
CAPsIzED VESSEL WITH WATER Up TO HIS NECK.
Captain White, OF the schooner Pinkerly, arrived
In Baltimore yesterday, and tells a thrilling story
OF the experience Of one OF his sailors who was Inn
prisoned in the hold Of the wrecked vessel "At the
time the vessel capsized during the blizzard" says
the captain, two OF the sailors were on deck and
the third In her hold, between decks The snow
Was railing thick, aud the weather was terribly
cold. The TWO men on deck climbed by the aid OF
the rigging fastened 10 the broken mast TO the top
OF the mast, but We're soon washed of and
drowned, they having been benumbed by the cold
"The man who was In the hold after being COM
pletely submerged Dy the rushing waters, found
himself standing In watery dungeon, his body to
the neck being under the water and his head In the
vacuum between the surface OF the water and the
bottom OF the upturned vessel. Thus Imprisoned
In the darkness and with scant supply OF air the
sailor chung TO the bottom while the schooner was
tossed about at the mercy OF the waves He re-
manned in his perlous position for thrty-six hours
More than once the man told me he felt all the ter.
fors OF death and despair. The vessel was driven
toward the shore and the broken stuDbS OF the
mast took hold IN the sand. The tide receded and
gave the sailor more room TO move about and more
air 10 breathe but afterward the tide rising up to
his neck, threatened him with death by the slow
process OF drowning. After the storm had subsid-
ed, having watched the vessel from shore felt
that all the men were drowned, but on going with
party TO discover her position heard groans
proceeding from the wreck. Axes were procured
and hole cut in the bottom OF the vessel and the
prisoner released"
