Two young sports, hailing from Bal
timore, who are more familiar with
street cars than they are with boats, not
withstanding that they have spent sew
eral vacations here, were asked Monday
if they could take small gasoline boat
and go to Urbanna after few blocks of
ice. They at once agreed to go, man.
ming the boat as follows: Captain,
Edward Crane; engineer, Victor Dennis.
Urbanna was reached in safety, the ice
put aboard and the boat put on her
course down the river. But they mis-
took the channel, steered far to the
port of Towles Point bouy and took up
on the bar at high water.
After many futile efforts they decided
to wait until assistance might arrive,
which was not long. Another small
boat happened to be bound down, to
which the cargo was transferred and
line hooked, but to no avail, for the
white sand had begun to show above
