of that locality.
The first OF five cars of weather

buildings.

than a bit Of heroisn; II was fortitude. passive
courage that confronted peculiar danger, self
sacrifice that was most conspicuous.

when one day a Spanish merchant vessel managed
10 slip IN without being discovered Hynson con-
ceived the idea Of capturing the vessel by night
attack and ne succeeded in doing But as he
could not take the vessel out Of harbor. for the
reason that she was under the close range OF the
enemy's guns and forts. Hynson set fire to the
vessel In doing he burned both his
badly that he carried them IN sings for several
days While IN this disabled condition n terrific
