A Weird Tale.

The Philadelphia Times publishes the
romantic story of Margaret Duncan,
whose almost forgotten grave is in an
obscure and seldom-visited part of the
Quaker City. She was the wife of Isaac
Duncan, grocer of Philadelphia, and
IN 1850 she determined to visit her
native place in Ireland. On her return
she took passage in a slow sailing craft
Tor home. The captain and crew turned
pirates, pillaged the passengers, and
then abandoned them and the vessel to
their fate, leaving them without food.
Terrible storms arose, the ship drifted
helplessly on the ocean and starvation
stared them in the face. The passen-
gers held meeting, and it was resolved
that one of their number must die in
three days to furnish food that the
others might live. A lottery of life was
held with paper slips. Before this
awful drawing each passenger signed
the chance willingly and without COM
pulsion. 'For the lives of others you
are sacrificed" was written on the paper
slips, which meant death to the drawer.
Margaret Duncan, with the rest, took
her turn to draw, and when she opened
her paper the death sentence stared her
IN the face. Calmly she announced her
fate to the crowd Of hungry passengers,
and then turning from them she stag
gered into her cabin and prayed as she
had never done before. 1t was not I'M
til evening that she arose from her
knees, and asking for pen and paper
she made written contract that if Di-
vine Providence would mercifully inter
vene and save her life that she would
erect in Philadelphia a church for the
service of God and devote all her ener-
gies to Him. Time flew quickly past
and the last day given to Margaret to
live had almost reached its close, when
deiiverance came from a vessel home
ward bound. When she reached Phila-
delphia and told her story it made her
the most famous woman in the city for
many day. She and her husband be-
came rich and made many generous
gifts to religion and charity, and at her
death Mrs. Duncan left Will providing
for the erection of church which was
completed in 1915, and the dedicating
sermon was preached by Rev. John M.
Duncan, grandson Of the heroine of the
story. But has Clark Russell or any
other writer of wild, weird sea tales
ever penned anything more thrilling
than this narrative Of real life?
