party was bound to WestChester.
After battling against the tide all the up the
river the boat arrived off North Brother Island
about 70 O'Clock. The tide drove her in toward the
shore. in spite Of all the men could do. and In n
few moments she froundcd Hogs Back. The
men Immediately cast anchor To bring help they
dipped rag in oil ignited It and whrled It in the
air as a signal OF distress The light was seen by
the ferryboat Hackensack. While It could not get
in close enough be of assistance, il carried word

was on its way TO the rescue followed by fire

The rescuers reached the neghborhood Of the

on the vessel. The police tried At frs: to throw
life buoys to the men the sloop, but they all
fell short Meanwhile the little vessel was being
tossed about on its perch by the waves. and its
seams began to open. The men bailed for dear
life but the water continually gained them.
Their anchor had been broken away. Any moment
they knew that the boat likely break her
back over the rocks and go TO pieces.
The rising tide added a new peril. From rock
ing the boat was hurled about and part of her
bow was broken of. All hands expected that she
would capsize and throw them into the whrl-
pools through which they could never hope to
swim 10 safety. At last. about O'Clock, the tide
lifted the sloop free, but she could not move by
her own power. and the water was within two
inches OF the cockpit The police managed to get
a line to her and she towed away 1t was
seen that she could not be towed TO a dock, and
tha police beached her at once.
In spite of their narrowing experience the men
were able TO get 10 work on their boat after they
had few drinks and meal and she was patched
up we'll enough TO make II possible TO take her
to Westchester creek for repairs The second part
of the voyage began AT o'clock yesterday after
noon. All the members Of the party were at their
homes last night. Their suitcases had been washed
