A real Turk was in Columbia
last week soliciting aid. He
claimed to be converted to the
Christian religion, and he carried
many recommendations as to the
truthfulness of his story. He
stated that he left his country
eight months ago, leaving his
wife, who is also Christian;
that his father, mother, brothers
and sisters had been murdered
on account of their conversions,
and that he was out, endearor-
ing to raise money sufficient to
bring his wife TO this country.
Many of our citizens contributed,
and he probably raised twenty or
twenty-five dollars in the town.
He may be all right and he may
not, but be that as it may, the
Columbia people were endeavor-
ing to help the needy, and they
are satisfied with their donations.

Once, when Gunner Johansen was
peering into the darkness, a small
spar, possibly flagstaff, shot up and
struck him in the face, causing a bad
bruise. The boat came by accident
upon Second Officer Williams as he
was swimming Although he was
hampered by his heavy overcoat, he
managed to keep afloat. A few mo-
ments later, steering toward a faint
cry which came out of the darkness,
the boat ran up to a floating graft
ing top, to which Captain Sealby, al
most exhausted, was clinging.
The boats crew then worked back
to the Gresham by signals. AS they
drew up alongside and those on board
the cutter learned that the two Off
GERS of the Republic were safe, both
American and British sailors tried to
outdo each other in cheering, but
many of the Republics men wept as
