Oracle told Il remarkable story OF

both the passengers and the crew, ana
paid a high tribute to the heroism OF
the women passengers.

when the ship settled at the head,

Colonel Oracle told of how he was
driven to the topmost deck when the
ship settled and was the sole survivor
after the wave that swept her just
before her final plunge had passed.
81 jumped with the wave" said he,
Just as L often have jumped with the
breakers at the sea shore. By great
good fortune 1 managed to grasp the
brass railing on the deck above and
1 hung on by might and main. When
the ship plunged down 1 was forced
to let go and I was swirled around
and around for what seemed to he an
time. Eventually 1
came to the surface to find the sea a
mass of tangled wreckage.
Luckily, L was unhurt, and casting
about, managed to seize a wooden
grating floating nearby. When 1 had
recovered my breath I discovered a
larger canvas and cork life raft which
had floated up. A man, whose name
L did not learn, was struggling toward
it from some wreckage to which
had chung. I cast off and helped him
to get onto the raft and We then be-
gan the work of rescuing those who
had jumped into the sea and were
in the water.
