CARRABELE, Fla, Feb. l4.-A boat
containing tivs oorpsvs and six men
barely alive has driftcd ashore on Dog
Island. When discovered by two fsh-
ermsn the survivors were lying unoOn-
soious on the deoomposvd corpses OF
their companions.
The Survivors were revived aud Gil
bort Holmes, who was strongest, re-
lated n story OF awful suffering. Last
week the steven men left Key West on
a smack TO fish on the west coast.
When two days out the smack was
wrecked, the men escaping In a boat
without food, water or clothing. Three
days after the wreck Frank Mason died
and soon alter Max Thornton. Alfred
Stafford, Joe West and Nathan A dams
suocumbed. The survivors were too
weak 10 throw their dead comrades Into
the ses, and the corpses remained In
tue boat. For tho last two days Holmes
was the only one OF tho living con-
scious, and he does not remember all
that happened. Tho scene In the boat
was horrible. The living and the dead,
Without n rag OF clothes, were tumbled
together. The cOrpses seemed 10 be
Knawsd In places, and the fishermen
suggested that In desperation the sur
viyoIs tried 10 sustain life ON the hesh
OF their dead companions.
The six survivors are: jose Rod
tiques, Sam Williams, Henry joan
son, john Blackburn, Arthur Moore
aud Gilbert Holmes, who are being
cared for on DOG island. Several Of
them seem TO have been rendered
idiotic by their suiierings.
