PARTED LINE ANCHORS VESSEL IN POTATO PATCH
Barkentine

The barkentine Fullerton narrowly
escaped disaster Monday night in the
breaking waves OF the Potato Patch.
She WAS coming in from sea by way
of the North Channel, in tow of the
steamer Argyll, which had brought her
from KahDlui The tWo-line parted
close TO the steamers stern. Without
sail and with 140 feet of 16-inch rope
hanging over her bow, the Fullerton
was unable 10 help herself and drifted
on the Potato Patch, which was
breaking fercely. Sea after sea board
ed the barlzentine and for a time ii
seemed as if the bombardment would
be too much for her. An effort was
made 10 haul in the tow-line. but it
proved a work beyond the strength of
the FNulerton's crew. Meanwhile the
heavy rope had settled to the bottom
securely enchoring the oil carrier in
the very thick Of the breaking seas.
Prompt action was necessary to save
the vessel Sail was made, and as soon
as the canvas was set, the towline
was cut adrift and with her own
wings the Fullerton worked out her
salvation.
The Argyll picked her up later and
both vessels came safely into port.
