The three -masted schooner Van Name
and King ran into storm off Cape Look
out on the fifth of October. This was
Thursday The next day the vessel be-
gan to leak badly. On Saturday she was
turned bottom up, throwing the men into
the sea, but they managed to get upon a
large piece of the deck. For five days
and nights they were there without food
or water, except little rain water which
they caught in piece of canvas. One
after another they became delirious and
jumped into the sea, until only two of the
crew of eight survived and were picked
up by vessel bound for Norfolk.
The commander of this Inflated vessel
was captain William A. Maxwell, oldest
son of Captain George s. Maxwell, men,
Der of the Board of Freeholders from
Washington township. Young Maxwell
was one of the last to jump into the sea,
but the suffering wrought by want of
food, water and proper rest was too great
to be overcome, and moaning that his

awful death. He was member of New
Gretna lodge No 1879, K. P, Mullica lodge

was popular and beloved member.
He became captain of his fathers yes

young and on his first trip he picked up
and saved the lives of whole crew off
Barnegat. He fought his way through
many severe storms, but the last was
more than he could weather, and it can be
truly said that he saved others but him

son, an affectionate brother, his loss leaves

cause of grief is the thought that he had
been looking forward with so much inter

recently purchased home in New Gretnt
and had made all preparations to spenC
the winter with his wife and little boy
who was just beginning to talk.

Death of DIR. Nelson.

The many friends of Rev. 8. Giffard
Nelson, formerly pastor of the Mount
Holly Baptist church, will be panied and
shocked to hear of his death, which &C.
Cured at his home In Brooklyn on Satur-
day. A few days before his death he had
been subjected to surgical operation,
and the latest reports were that he was
recovering nicely, but some unexpected
complication must have ensued, resulting
fatally.
Rev. DR.. Nelson was born in Cookstown,
North of Ireland, in 1916. He went to
Brooklyn at the age of twenty-five, and
was engaged for years in newspaper work.
Then he studied law, and was a member
of the firm of Place, Nelson & Place
Feeling that his work lay in the ministry,
he was graduated from the Hamilton The
illogical Seminary. He held pastorates in
Rhinebeck, Jersey City Heights and
Mount Holly, and in the Bethel Chapel,
Bedford Avenue Baptist church and the
Greene Avenue Baptist church, Brooklyn.
In February, 1898, the Mount Holly
Baptist church extended a unanimous call
to DR.. Nelson to become pastor of the
church here. He was a genial compan-
ion, polished gentleman and an earnest
CHRISTIAN. His admirable qualities gained
him many friends and there was general
regret in the fall of 1896 when he an
nounced his intention of rendering his
resignation and removing to New York.
He had intended retiring from the minis
try altogether, but church in Flatbush
was having struggle to live and he be-
came its pastor and remained with that
parish long enough to see the church
grow and become based upon firm foun-
dation, and in 1908. according to an
original intention, he retired from the
ministry, and prepared to devote himself
to literary life, to which he was very
much attached.
But even then the church made some
demands upon him and he was chosen
moderator of the Long Island Baptist As
ISOLATION, which embraces the churches
of New York and Brooklyn. During this
time he was engaged as a reviewer of
books, and was called upon by the Harper
Brothers to look over many of the works
offered them for publication. He was also
an editorial writer on the Brooklyn Eagle
staff
He was, at the time of his death, acting
secretary of the new Academy of Music
in Brooklyn. He leaves widow and one
son. The funeral services will be held in
Brooklyn this evening.

Like other similar organizations the

history. To the fact that annual dinners
were given by the company in earlier
days is ascribed the continued existence

was enthused by Job Collins in 1889.
