end gave way and practically all the peo-
pie in 1t were spilled into the water. Only
three or four. and these were men, kept
ahoat until the boat was finally launched.
That a mistake was made was proven by
the witnesses who swore that someone on
deck, presumably an officer, gave the order
to lower away. The order might have been
given by an excited passenger, but it was
so dark that none of the witnesses could
tell positively who gave the order. No
one could swear that the ropes were either
>cut or broken, so that the evidence seemed
to show that one end was dropped before
the other.
