the total disappearance Of such a ship,
in comparatively fine weather, is one of
the most remarkable of these ocean
mysteries. From all those vessels, not
one soul escaped to tell OF the disaster,
and save in one or two instances, not
even a boat or life buoy belonging to
them was picked up. How did they
disappear? You will say they foun-

We never knew his real name. Every
one called him Capt. George; and Capt.
George he remained, from the first day
he entered LaHdport harbor until the
night parted from him in Plymouth
sound, about four years later. His
arrival at Landport was announced in
the Northern Post and Shipping Gazette
in this manner:
"LandDort, Sunday. Steam Yacht Wanderer
arrived from Stockton, with machinery
damaged. Owner, Captain George"
What was he like? We'll, if YOU had
put the question to the gentry Of the
place some would have answered il
with shrug of the shoulders, as much
as to say they couldn't well make hin,
out; others would have told YOU he
seemed a naughty, reserved, stand-off
sort Of man. Ii you had asked any OF
the young ladies, you would very
likely hear that he was '.charminr.'
but that they believed him to be a
pirate chief in disguise, or some non
sense of that kind. Among us divers
he was looked upon as bold. gallant
sailor, who loved the sea and everything
connected with it, q man we all admired
and looked up to.
lie frequently put into Landport
after that-at odd times, summer and
winter but came round regularly
every June. He never made friends in
the place, and few acquaintance.
People still held pretty much the same
opinion concerning him. On different
occasions, as he passed along by the
sea wall, | have seen more than one
lovely head turned to take sly look at
his tall figure, and heard the whisper:
There's that strange man, Capt
George; isn't he Handsomely"
Towards the end of August l was en-
gagged with two other divers to remove
cargo from the steamer MAGELLAN,
which had run on an outlying reef
about twenty miles down the coast.
The surveyor of the Landport Salvage
association, Capt. Lorton, was in charge
of the wreck, and had orders to make a
push to get her cleared out while the
weather held fine. We put up at a
neighboring village, place called st.
Nevin, pretty little spot hidden away
at the top of a small landlocl5ed bay.
On the third morning it was blowing
rather fresh. While 1 was waiting in
the little parlor OF the Mariners Rest
the only thing in the shape of a motel
Of which st. Nevin could boast-Capt.
L0rton came in. He went up to the
barometer on the wall, tapped it, and
said:
"Glass falling; this breeze will freshen
during the day, and most likely run
up to a gale before night. If it does,
there won't be much of the Magellan
left by morning, Lawrenceson. At any
rate it would be too risky to venture
out with the wind rising in this way"
About twelve o'clock l noticed
considerable stir amongst the fisher
men ON the beach. Looking scaward, l
saw a large steam yacht entering the
bay. recognized her at once. 1t was
the Wanderer.
Capt. George came on shore during
the afternoon, and looked in to the
Mariners Rest. 1t seemed he had heard
of the wreck, and was anxious to visit
the scene of the disaster.
Its blowing hard outside" he said,
land very thick, too. l saw the fishing
boats running in for Widmouth this
