doomed ship went to pieces, passing frigatc

The Swiftsure, as the latter craft was called,
resumed her northward course, to be founder
ed in a terrific gale three days later.
Her combined crews were saved by the war
ship Governor Ready, en- voyage to India,
May 1S, 1880. The last named. overtaken
by a storm, was stranded on barren coast,
her three crews TO man succeeding in reach

After staying week on the inhospitable isl

Comet which few days later sprang leak,

Fortunately, rescue ship was again On
hand, the four crews being saved by the
Jupiter.
Even then, however, the chain of disasters
was not broken, for the Jupiter, just as she
was entering the harbor of Port Rattle, turned
turtle and went down with scarcely a mo-
ment's warning. Her crews barely escaped
with their lives, to be picked up by boats
sent to their aid.
Thus the crew of the Mermaid was wrecked
five times in one voyage, that of the Swift
sure four times, OF the Governor Ready three
times, and the Comet twice.
The rescues had been purely accidental in
every case, none of the ships having been sail

bird struck its wings on the log, and others
that it struck them together over its back.
"I did not give much heed to the book man $

that the bird thumped the log with its wings,
because whether it stood on stump or q

because, when pigeon or rooster strikes its

'It is not an easy. matter to get sight OF

with a palmleaf fan in his hand, he glanced
at the thermometer, which hung against the
mainmast. ''Ninety-seven degrees in the shade,
