the heavy head wind. The pounding
against the steamer. and the launching of a life
boat impossible
AT midnight terrific crash was heard. Inves-
tigation showed that giant comber had struck
a five ton lifeboat, hurting it into the air and
smashing It Down against the railing of the bridge.
The cry of man overheard, had reached the

the verge of panic through fear of the Storm be-
came frantic. A steward, who tried to calm them,
found that three children had been born during
the storm.

left Antwerp on March 2 From March until
