Old shippers, when together, never grow
weary of reeounting to each other the

tains, pilots and steamboat men. Here

for many years. love to talk of the dan
gers past. and OF the narrow escapes they
have run.

OF fires on shipboard came up. All agreed
that fire at sea was something sufficient
to appal the stoutest heart.
