BOTH NEARLY CRUSHED.

New York Tribune: From the upper
deck Of the lighter Terminal. OF the
Old Dominion line. at Pier 20. North
river. last night. George and oscar
Gunderson, aged l2 and Q years, re-
spectively. were thrown into the water
by a collision with the lighter No
vember. which was being warped into
the pier. Oscars life was saved by his
sister, Elizabeth, u years old. but
George was drowned. 1t was sad
blow to Captain John Gunderson OF the
lighter, for It was the second son he
had lost In two weeks
There were nine children. Then
Frank. one of the younger boys. died.
and to give him proper burial the
family gave up their home IN the city
and went to live on the lighter.
Last night when the boys fell into
the water, Miss Elizabeth sprang TO
the stern Of the lighter and grabbed
the top round OF the ladder that ran
into the water. She could see Oscar
struggling between the two boats. The
captain Of the tug was evidently un-
conscious of the accident. six feet
away was the November, advancing
slowly, while half way between the two
was Oscar. Clinging tightly to the
ladder with one hand, the girl reached
out as far as she could and Just caught
her brothers toe. A little more EFFORT
and she reached his ankle and quickly
drew him to her.
II had taken but a few seconds, but
the November was getting nearer and
nearer. She thought every minute
both would be crushed to death. Fear
gave her strength, and. dragging the
boy from the water, she threw him
over her shoulder and started to re-
mount the ladder. Her drenched
skirts were clinging to her, and only
one hand was free. The November was
four feet away, Half way up the lad
der she became exhausted and could
only hold on. Every minute she ex-
pected the crash, but finally the lighter
backed off, and she knew she was safe.
She found her voice then. and was
helped up the ladder by stevedores.
In the meantime scale man on the
pier and watchman had jumped into
the dater and tried to rescue George.
They could not find him, but his body
was brought up later by graphing
hooks.
