were taken from the dingey lost every
thing except the clothes they wore.
The dingey sank. The men who had
left the ship in the dingey were Sec
ond Officer Thomas Miles, George
Fairly, Peter Green and c. Peterson.
The boats kept pretty well together
until darkness fell. When the sun set
the ship was out Of sight over the rim
Of the ocean, although the cloud ot
black smoke could still be seen.
During the first night the captains
boat separated from the other two. II
was arranged that the mates boat was
to take the gig in tow at nightfall
every day. Only the two life boats had
been provisioned. The gig had to de-
pend on the mates boat for food and
water. cask of water was handed
over TO the gig from the mates boat
the first day, together with some pro.
Visions
Early in the morning OF Friday, the
9th inst, the captains boat reached
MAXWELL. The men this boat, while
they were sore from sitting in cramped
positions In the life boat and were
drenched to the skin from the water
that was taken aboard, had not sui.
fered at all from want of food. Never.

when Kauai was sighted
The mates boat arrived at Waimea
on Saturday morning. This boat had a
little longer sail of it than the cap
tains boat.
The boatswain and three men in the
gig are the men who really suffered tho
most. After the third night the mates
boat did not tow the gig. The boats
became separated and the gig went
ahead of the mates boat.
The gig sighted Bird Island on the
morning Of the fourth day from the
burning wreck. She lay off Bird Island
for couple of hours, waiting to see II
the mates boat would catch up. But
there was no sign OF the mates boat.
The gig then steered about east.
southeast, finally sighting Niihau, al.
though the men in the gig did not know
what land 1t was they sighted. They
knew II las land and were satisfied
with that. All the boatswain had to 60
by was a compass and the order of tho
mate when the boats left the ship, that
he steer about east-south-east.
1t was last Friday morning, the 9Th
Inst. and the eighth day from the ship
that Niihau was sighted, 1t was not
until Sunday morning, however, that
the men in the gig were able to effect a
landing. On Friday they were very
near Niihau and saw some men run
ming along the beach, waving at them.
1t was impossible to make a landing,
