keeper of the East Pascagoula light
house and his family. These men were

arrived off the Pascagoula light house

which was swaying in every gust of
the gale and threatening to collapse at
any moment 1t was soon seen by the
keeper, whose wife and two babies
had sought refuge in the tower that
unless speedy relief was given them
they must be lost. The two Petersons
embarked in small boat with other
members of the crew, and after

the base of the tower. The keeper
threw to them from the top line
which he had carried up. One after

up the rope which dangled from the
tower. The wind caught them,
and hurled them against the
building with such force as to
bruise them badly, and they were sew

their hold upon the rope, but they
finally reached the top, and then they
lowered to the men waiting below first
the two babies, then the keepers wife
and then the keeper himself. When
all of these had been saved, the two
men slid down the rope and returned
to the Winona Capt. Hanks, of the
revenue cutter, praises in the highest
terms the conduct of the two Peter
sons, and declares that he does not be-
