KEEP VESSEL AFLOAT
Transfer Made Off Cape Cod by the
Marina Early Thursday-Havoc
Wrought Along Coast as Re-
suit of Blizzard

Baltimore, January 1s.-Reseued from
their iee-coated sinking ship after they
had given up all hope. the IS members of
the crew of the flve-masted schooner
Fuller Palmer. this morning arrived in
Baltimore aboard the Donaldson line
steamer Marina. The rescue was made by
the Marina early Thursday morning, 15i
miles southeast of Cape Cod.
Since Monday morning, when the storm
battered schooner began to leak the crew
had fought to keep her afloat With
sails whipped into threads by the wind
and rigging broken and so coated with
ice that 1t could not be handled. the
Fuller Palmer had practically drlfted at
the mercy of the raging seas.
Distress Signals Sent Out
On Wednesday night. with all hope of
making port gone, and fearful that the
vessel would sink at any minute, distress
signals We're sent up. Every few min
utes the bright rockets scared from the
bridge only to be swept quickly away by
the gale that roared through the broken
rigging.
From points on the mast red lights
were placed so that some ship might see
them and come to their rescue.
Small boats and life crafts had been
crushed by the waves, while most OF
the woodwork on the upper decks had
oeen smashed. There ras no way that
the crew could leave the doomed ves-
sell
With all chance apparently gone. the
men huddled together in the forecastle.
but up on the bridge Captain Clarke
still maintained watch. Shortly before
o'clock Thursday morning a rocket shot
up some miles away, showing that at
last the signals had been noticed.
Until daylight the Marina stood by and
when the seas had somewhat moderated
several boats were lowered and the crew
taken aboard
So low was the Fuller Palmer In the
water that no time was given the men
to collect any of their belongings. With
only the clothes they had on they We're
taken from the vessel. The transfer
was made without accident.

JAMES r. TABER
To retire after 26 years as postmaster in
Unity.

After serving his town 26 years as
postmaster, 10 of which were of contin-
uous service, James R. Taber OF Unity
is soon to give up the exactlng duties OF
the Office much to the regret OF his host
of friends in the town, and seek we'll
earned rest. Few postmasters in the
State have been in service longer than
Mr.. Taber and few have maintained a
higher regard in the will of the people
than he, and the concluding of his long
term as Uncle Sans agent is generally
regretted throughout the town. For
vacation from his duties and respite
will have been well earned.
Early and late he has been at the office
attending to his many duties. No mat
ter how cold or stormy the morning in
winter, he could be seen about 5 O'Clock
in the morning going down to the office
) to start his fire and begin his days work
before breakfast.
In addition to his duties as postmaster
he has kept fruit, confectionery and sta
/ tionery for sale; at first attending to
everything himself, but in lale years he
has kept a clerk most of the time, al
though for some time now he has had
assistance only few hours of the day.
MIR. Taber has been popular both with
old and young. He is man who reads
much, keeping posted on the topics of
the day, and he is also we'll posted in the
history of the town.
Although he has seen rs years pass by
he is still as young in spirit as a boy and
is interested in the boys and girls in the
village and enjoys talking over their
good times, school life and future plans
with them.
Mr.. Tabor will continue to live in his
OLD home with his daughter, and his
friends wish him many happy years.
