be broken when the Suevia was off the
southerr-most point of Devonshire. A
strong east gale was blowing, and a
heavy sea was running. The Suevia
driited down the channel and expert

for fear OF disaster to the small craft.
Finally the chief officer of the Suevia
put off in lifeboat, and after receiving
a terrific pounding from the sea, met a
pilot boat, which brought him to
Plymouth. A powerful ocean going tug
was sent to search for the Suevia, but
returned last night without finding any
