a more grotesque tale of marine mis-
adventure than was experienced by
those men In bringing their spolls to
port. They encountered suicide and
Spanish bullets and bufreted about by
hostile winds, dElsted helplessly about
in strange seas until well nigh hopeless
OF ever reaching shore.
Both prizes were under the British
flag, bound from Kingston, Jamaica,
for Manzanillo, with food supplies. On
the Three Bells was Captain e. j.

Pilgrim carried Dutch captain and
four seamen OF the same class.
