CAT REFUSES TO QUIT
SHIP WHEN CREW LEAVES

ATLANTIC CITY, Sept 9.-There
must be some of the spirit of Captain
Lawrence in Billy, a large black and
white cat which had been the mascot
of the Brazeria, the freighter that
stranded on the shoals here.
When the crew was taken off Billy
was forgotten. The sailors thought he
had been drowned or washed over
board, but just before 1t was decided
that the Brazeria couldn't be saved, a
boatload of salvage men, rowing out
to the tossing ship, saw the cat drow-
ing his tired legs back and forth across
the deck.
When the rescuers clambered aboard
they found Billy in a sad state. He
had had neither food nor water.
Here, Billy" called one of the men,
The cat looked up wearily, but didn't
move. When the words were repeated
Billy started aft.
"Grab him; he won't come willingly
said the man.
Two others started for Billy, but
the cat leaped over the fallen mast and
fled up and down the deck He was
too weak to last, and pursuer caught
him.
Billy clawed the man, but had to
submit The large crowd on shore was
az much Interested in his arrival as If
h had been human.
