all probability, saved his life.
IL was long after midnight when
this took place and during this time
his son and others were looking for
him. At first they went down the
shore as far as Morgan S and at one
time they thought they heard him
rowing very plainly and almost shout
ed themselves hoarse In trying to at
tract his attention. Then, as the
rowing suddenly ceased, they came
to the conclusion that he had drop
ped anchor. Hastily returning they
secured a boat and sailed for the
point as near as possible where they
had heard the sound of oars, but
were unable to find any trace of him
until they encountered the schooner
about to enter Whale creek with Mr..
Bloodgood's boat in tow. They took
him in their boat and started for
South Amboy which place they reach

Mr.. Bloodgood was almost helpless
on reaching home on account of ex-
posure and the nervous condition due
to the excitement and fatigue. A
physician was called and it is said
the results will not be serious.

But 1t appears that for once he
was mistaken for almost as soon as
he was out of sight OF the shore,
which was very soon. he found that
he was lost. His hearing being de-
fective, he was unable to locate the
shore by sound. so he commenced
rowing in the direction he thought
It was.
From his story he must at one
time have been quite close to the
shore near Mr.. Perrine's clay dock.
From the way it loomed up in the
fog, however, he thynght 1t was the

evident he was rowing as fast as
possible down the bay toward Sandy
Hook.
Finally, after he had rowed long
time and was becoming nearly ex-
hausted, he saw a dim light through
the fog to which he directed his
course. On coming up with 1t he
