SAVED SHIP BY
SINGING HYMNS
LightShip Crew in Peril Took
Courage from Nearer.
My God. TO Thee"

LEWES, Del, Jan. 31.-Among the
many tales related by crews of vessels
which managed to weather the recent
storm. none is more thrilling than that
of the Winter Quarter Llghtship. the
men of which, after once abandoning
hope, were spurred on to make one
more battle for life by Engineer
Charles West starting the hymn,
Nearer, My God, to Thee"
The 30-foot house Of the vessel was
torn away by a big wave, which also
injured the captain, and the water soon
began to food the hold The pumps
refused to work and some Of the crew
had begun to offer prayers, which they
believed would be their last, when the
notes Of the familiar hymn were heard.
One after another the men took up the
air, and with renewed courage patched
up the pumps and managed to work
them until a revenue cutter hove in
sight and towed the disabled ship TO
port.
Thomas Pratt, cook Of the barge
Fannie, who was rescued with the
other member of the crew by the life
line when the barge went ashore in the
bay. died yesterday Of pneumonia
caused by the exposure. The remains
will be sent 70 his home at Norfolk.
