by those who cared TO take the trouble.
Farming and fishing were abandoned,
and even school was dismissed, while
most of the population OF the nearby
islands. men, women and children,
devoted themselves TO obtaining treas

raise them TO the deck,
Huge cases containing automobiles
and pianos followed one another over
the side, striking the water with
great splash Sewing machines and
clocks went with them, while furniture
noated everywhere. Many baleS OF
cigarettes covered the face of the
water, and tons of cheap American
novels drifted to the nearby shore of
Bryher, where they were piled like
seaweed.
Tidings of the jettisoning Of wealth
spread early, and a 1otilla of fishing
craft, luggers and rowboats scurried TO
the scene, AS fast as the CARO- hit the

up the smaller cases, while they took
the larger ones in tow.
