her in charge. Az her bow neared the
pier the strong ebb tide caught the YES
sell at the stern and began to swing her
around.
The vessel began to back under her
own power and was soon out Of the
stream again almost directly in the
path of the I.ackawunna ferry boats
The tugs began to mancuver about her
again but the big liner slowly drifted
southwark.
After the vessel had driftcd more
than n mile the tugs succeeded in get
ting her tow again and she was headed
up stream under control.
