anything about the submerged jetty, and
so what happened afterward was not
altogether the fault Of the captain.
The yacht was going at pretty good
pace when she headed about and before
any one knew that danger was near her
nose went into the air and she ran on a
submerged jetty. She careened to port
and twenty of the forty members OF the
Hancock Social Club rolled OF the deck
into the bay, while the others held on az
best they could and yelled for help.
Half a mile away two women had been
nlaving tennis. They were Laura
Guerite and her close friend, Rose Bar
rett who was a member Of The Woman
Haters." The tennis players had seen
the yacht heading toward the tetty and
ran TO the shore waving their racquets.
but the members Of the social club
thought that they meant only Look
who's herew and waved back at them
until the Count ran aground and they
went into the water.
At Miss Guer'te's private landing was
mOOre0 the motor boat Laura ps' anu
without fear or hesitation the two
women got aboard cranked the engine
and went out To the stranded Count.
They were just in time, for the men in
the water were clnging TO the SUBJ
merged piles and getting mighty tired
of the situation. Ten OF them were
taken into the Laura c., and three who
could not get in were allowed to grasp
the gunwale, and in this fashion were
towed ashore.
Other launches attracted by the
whistling Of the Laura c., put out from
points along the shore and rescued the
entire club. as well as Captain Froelich.
but they had to leave the Count dry
upon the jetty, where when the tide
went out she was hanging like hooked
fish.
The Hancock Club dried out at Hunt
er's Hotel. which is not far from Corona,
and then came back to New York.
