incident of more than passing interest.

was on her way home to Liverpool Her
husband was consumptive and was 50
i'll that when he was taken off the ship
a boat filed with cotton was brought
alongside and the sick man dropped into
it. When the ship arrived at Havre the
lady asked Capt Lapham if he had a
wife. and upon his replying that he had =
little girl down in Maine. she avowed her
intention of remembering the little girl.
and later there came to Mrs Lapham
among several other gifts. a dozen OF
handsome solid silver knives.
Mrs. Lapham has preserved all these
mementos of that memorable occasion,
together with a large oil painting of the
rescue. and cherishes every one of them
as the apple of her eye.
