INFANT IN

LASHEO TO MAST
Taken from Wrecked Ship After
Facing Death Twenty
four Hours.

BOSTON, July 31.-Mrs. Albert NC
Rel. wife of the master Of the schoon-

swamped by the waves during the

house of her husbands vessel with their
14-months-old baby. Mrs. McRell was
taken off the schooner by a feooa
from the passenger steamship Bunker
Hill. sailing from New York.
Mrs. McRell was in a perilous posi-
ton for more than twenty-four hours.
Here is Mrs. McRelrs own narrative
of the thrilling occurrences or tnat
wild day and night:
The storm struck us Friday morn
ing. First a wave carried away the
bowsprit and then the
snapped. Toward afternoon we were
driven from the cabin by the water
which slowly but surely began to rise.
There wasn't any upp because the
galley was under water. The c
we're flooded, too-that Is, the decks
were still above the level of the water,
but every time a sea would come 1t
swept right over the deck. The ship
seemed to be settling all the time.
II had my baby boy Albert In my
arms and for a time we were fairly
dry. Then the spume began to drip
over us and we were soon wet to the
skin. The baby was very brave and
didn't cry much. l was up there I'M
til about II o'clock at night when they
took us off and put us on the quarter
deck. But we got wet there, too.
1.-THE rain fell in torrents. There was
no place for shelter and we finally hud-
died together for shelter on the after
deck, with ropes bound about us and
fastened to the stanchions to keep
us from being swept into the raging
sea.
II never want to go through such an
experience again. 1t almost crazed me.
The men were all good and kind to me
and kept up as comforting talk as they
could, but 1 was thinking of the baby
all the time"
