earnest entreaties of his wife. He is q.
W. Shoup Barber begged him to resume
his former position as purser OF the
Alpha. Telegram after telegram came
to Shoup from Vancouver, and twice ne
promised to ship as purser, only to have
Mrs. Shoup each time dissuade him from
his purpose. She reasoned that there
was more than superstition on the part
of the Vancouver sailors In their refusal
to go to sea In the Alpha. ut may be
merely a sailors notion" she said. but
| can't give my consent Somehow
feel that this will be the Alpha's last
voyage"
And so 1t was The lady chung to her
purpose. Once Mr.. Shoup telephoned his
wife to pack his personal effects, stating
that he had concluded to ship as pur err.
'.I'll do as you say she replied. but
! want to have long talk with you be-
fore you go. Come home early"
The talk resulted in Shoup notifying
Barber that under no circumstances
would he go. 1t was then that Barber,
much against his wishes, decided to make
the voyage himself and take his brother,
John Barber, along as purser OF the
vessel.
Neither would have gone had Shoup
consented to make the voyage.

in Adams shack, four miles south of
