A TALE OF sHIPwREcK.
Sailors Rescued from South Sea
Islands After Long Waiting.

San Francisco Feb. 1.-THE crew
and master. Frederick j. Toole, of the
British bark Savernoke. which was
wrecked in the Society islands in No
vember, arrived here to-day from
Tahiti after an unusual experience.
The Savernoke. bound from this port
to the channel for orders. went ashore
November 14th on the Isle of Clement
Honnere of the Pomatu group of the
Society islands. Captain ToOle and tie
crew. eighteen in number, remained
by the wreck month in the hope of
sighting some passing vessel. Decem-
ber 18th Captain Toole and two of the
crew started in a small boat for Manga
Reva. 300 miles away, for assistance.
There was no help at Manga Reva and
Captain Toole determined to start for
Papeete, 1900 miles away. but the
French government refused to let him
so to sea in small boat.
On January 10th n trading schooner
put in at Manga Reva and offered to
take the crew of the Savernoke to
Papeete. While they We're negotiating
over the terms the gunboat Zelee came
in the harbOr with the crew of the
Savernoke. After Captain Toole left
the wreck it appears that the crew
waited for his return until January
2nd. on which date the mate and three
of the crew left the island for Papeete.
They We're picked up by the schooner
Maurice 200 miles from Papeete and
taken to their destination. where the
Zelee was found. The Zelee returned
for the crew and went to Manga Reva
for Captain Toole. The reunited crew
was then taken to Papeete, arriving
there January 21st.
