FINDING THE "MAGNET.' .



Several months previous to our ar
rival at Rio in the whaler John Davis,
a craft called the Magnet" containing
about sixty gold seekers. had left that
port for the coast of Africa. As she had
not been spoken. and as we were bound
to those seas, we were asked to keep a
LOOKOUT Tor signs of her. Forty DAYS
later, one day when I was aloft in rhe
crows mes, I sighted a derelict not over
four miles away. What 1 made out
was a craft with all her masts, yards,
bowsprit and standing rigging gone.
She was nearly bows on to me so I
could not make out how badly her bull
warks We're damaged. The stump of
the foremost was about twenty feet
high, while the others had broken off
lower down. The hull was very buoy
ant and hoated high. but, as was TO be
expected. it presented a weather beaten
and fOrlOrp appearance The deck
house and cook galley were still stand
ing, and 1 thought / could make out
lot of wreckage floating alongside.
On descending to the deck 1 reported
my discovery to the captain and an
hour later the wind being very light.
we We're up with the wreck To our
great surpAse the drifting hulk proved
to be that Of the missing Magnet"
From the time of sighting her to the
moment of heaving to, we looked for
q signal to show that some one was still
living aboard of her. but none was
shown When we had her under our lee
the crew ran alOft to look down upon
her decks. The fall of the masts had
crushed her bulwarks but the damage
had been repaired afterwards. though
the new work had not been painted As

and buOyant as when it sailed out OF
