AGONY OF A FATHER
DAUGHTER DIES FAR FROM HIM
His Reaching the House of
MOurninE.

New York. Jan. S.--A dispatch from
Nantucket Lightship, off the coast OF
Massachusetts, gives an account OF the
manner in which Captain Jorgensen, OF
the lightship learned of the illness and
death of his daughter through the wire
less telegraph system. Informed by Wire
less telegraphy Of the sad event, and yet
kept an unwilling prisoner for seven days
because of the extremely rough sea,
which prevented incoming steamers from
taking him off, Captain Jorgensen finally
succeeded in getting on board the steam
ship Astoria, which will carry him ashore.
The girl, who vas 70 years old, had been
i'll from the effects Of vaccination at her
home in Braintree, Mass. News of her
condition since she was first taken i'll
had been daily flashed to her father at his
post by means CT the Marconi system. AS
the daily bulletins told of her rapid loss
Of strength, and the premonitory symp
toms of lockjaw, which finally developed,
Captain Jorgensen's distress of mind be-
came greater day by day. At last came a
dispatch announcing her death December
30. Although the seas rolled nearly as
high as ever, January he resolved to
make desperate effort to get ashore
Almost a hurricane was blowing at the
time, but message was flashed to the
shore for the lighthouse tender Azelea
ITO take him off. She approached to within
few hundred yards Ct the lightship, but
the tremendous force of the seas finally
prevented her getting near enough to take
the captain off. Messages were sent to
to Captain Jorgensen's family to delay
the funeral as long as possible. Not I'M
til this week was it possible for any Of
the incoming steamers to get near the
lightship to enable Captain Jorgensen to
make the perilous journey from the light
ship to the steamer in a small boat.
