the boat wasn't put nearer he would
jump in there and try and swim to
the woman's rescue.
The captain saw that it was useless
to protest, and he told the crew to do
as Whit desired. Whit fastened one
end of the rope that was around his

a terrible trip to make, but Dorothy
arrived safe and sound. The problem
now was how to rescue the man.

hope that it would float within Wint's

be got to Whit, but luckily the swirl

wreck, carried it among the ropes, and
Whit got it. He put it on, and was
