and crew that the old United States
lighthouse tender Manzanita did not

river, as she was being towed yester-
day from Tongue Point to st. Johns,
where she was placed on the drydock for
repairs. Although she was equipped
with powerful pumps, more water was
shipped during the passage than they
could possibly admit. While the pumps
were going to their full capacity me-
chanics kept patching up the damaged
hold frequently it looked as though
the vessel would have to be abandoned.
She was in tow of the tug Samson, one
of the stanchest vessels of her type on
the Coast. The tender dragged heav-
lily on her. For Is hours the members
of the crew worked ceaselesslv to keep
her aGoat. On reaching the drydock
they were completely exhausted.
