Taylor was so badly damaged that she sank
shortly afterwards. The chief officer of
the Taylor was crushed to death and Cap

time, had his legs injured. Quite heavy
sea was running and when the Trave low
cred her boats to go to the rescue of the
imperilled men oil was used to prevent the
seas combing and to facilitate the work Of
the rescue.
The passengers on the steamer had been
aroused by the shock of the collision and
nearly all of them were on deck. Every
one watched the manning and lowering OF
the small boats with most intense interest.
The crews took their places in perfect
order. There was no confusion. Every
man knew his place and the moment the
boats struck the:Water the ropes were cast
off the boats shot away in the direction of

6 o'clock, in the morning, a huge steamer,
which was afterwards learned was the
Trave, crashed into the Taylor. Captain
Hurlbert was ONT the bridge at the
time and one watch was below.
| Among the watch below was Mr.. Woody,
the chief officer. He was crushed to death
at the moment of The collision. The car
penter of the Taylor was drowned. The
stewardess was the only woman on board
| the Taylor, and was thrown into the sea at
| the time of the collision, and when sho
was rescued by the crew of one Of the
Traves' boats she was nearly drowned.
The officers and crew of the Taylor had
| no time to attempt to save any of their
effects They brought from the wreck
nothing but the working clothes they
stood in. Better clothing was supplied to
them by the captain of the Traye.
The 'Trave was only slightly damaged
about the bows. The damage was so little
that it was repaired on the voyage. The
crew of the Taylor have been given refuge
at the Sailors Home at Southampton.

IL. c. Conrad, attorney for the board,
suggested compilation of the laws affect

service. The matter was laid over to the
next meeting, as was also the proposition

A communication from the nurse in
charge of the hospital asking for beds for
bed ridden patients was referred to the

In regard to the supplies of meat, DIR.
| Enos moved that the superintendent be

little higher than is paid for the 'old COW
| meat" ordinarily furnished to the aims
| house. The motion was adopted. The
superintendent reported the general grade
of supplies TO be of good quality.
Trustees Husbands and Garman reported

in good condition. The matter of supply
ing new wagons in place of the present
ones which are worn out was referred to
the farm committee with power to act.
