Lost In Fog

Two fishermen Of this city whose
names could not be learned, were
lost in the fog on Clatsop spit on
Sunday night and their boat cap
sized. One man clambered on the
keel and hung on for an hour or
more while the other rode the cork
line till he was all but exhausted and
was finally hauled up beside his
companion. They were finally found
and brought in by the life-saving
crew at Point Adams, who also saved
the boat gear and landed it, and after
the same was duly overhauled and
dried out at the station, the men left
out for their fishing ground, after
gratefully thanking Catain Wicklund
and his men for the signal service
rendered them.
