She was sitting In the stern and l in the
center of the boat, and as we attempted to
change places she became frightened and
stepped over onto my side of the boat, and,
without moments warning, we were
thrown into the water. As soon as possible
grabbed her, and as l reached for the
boat told her to cling to my arm. We were
In such position 1t was impossible to get
hold Of the end and 1t kept rolling over and
striking US on the heads, each time sending
us under. The last time 1t came over It
hit me On the forehead, rendering me sense

young men were dragging me into their
boat and Edith was missing, she having re-
leased the hold on my arm and sank, the
boat evidently hitting her the same time II
