Letter from a Tuscania Survivor.

Ms. r. A. Register hands US let
ter from her grandson, Gerald R. Rus
sell of Austin, member of the 158th
Aero Squadron, who was one of tho
Tuscania SURVIVORS and from it we copy
that part referring to the sinking OF
that ship. Il suppose you have heard
that am one of the survivors of the
torpedoed Transport Tuscania of the
Anchor Line.
1 must say have been thru ''just
little bit of hell" and am lucky to be
here to tell the story.
When the terrible crash came, ! was
lying in my bunk reading a magazine.
I was knocked out of my bunk, badly
dazed, as the torpedo struck near my
quarters. ~.
As soon as we were struck all lights
went out. The first thing did was to
grab for my life belt, but could not
find it in the dark, SO went to my
place on deck where my life boat was
located. 1t took some time to get
there, five decks above my quarters.
They had trouble in lowering the
boats so we stood in line waiting for
the Tuscan;a to sink expecting another
torpedo to hit US. Believe me, those
were anxious moments.
Three British Torpedo Destroyers
came to our rescue and finally we slid
down ropes to safety. They took US to
the nearest port in Irelrnd. I suppose
you have heard the song 'Ireland must
be Heaven" well, never believed it
until set foot on the Emerald Isle.
Ireland is beautiful place. No snow
there or in England, everything green.
Had it not been for the British De-
stroyers we would have lost more men.
Most of those lost were dashed against
the Scottish coast and the boats over
turned or crushed. Eighteen of our
Squadron are missing, but the kaiser's
tin fish did not get US all.
The sinking occurred at 13 minutes
to 6, Feb. 5th. 1t sure was a rough
night at sea, but it did not worry me,
but put more pep" in me than ever
had, and hope it woke up some of our
American people so they will realize we
are really at war. Our First Sergeant
saved the flag, the only one rescued
from the Tuscania. We are very proud
of it.
After leaving Ireland, we had an
other d hours trip across to England.
We expected to fight the "subs" again,
but landed O. K.> am wearing q
British coat and have no hat and very
little clothing, as we did not have time
to save anything. All our service
records were lost, so it will be some
time before we get our money, but
will get along all right.
We were treated fine by the Irish Ind
Scotch people in Ireland. They are all
fine people over here.

FANCHER.

On Sunday, March II, 1913, after q
brief illness due to an attack of lagrippe,
Miss Abbie Fancher passed peacefully
away at the home of her sister, Mrs.
A. P. Curtis, of Orleans Township,
Winneshiek County, Iowa.
Abigail Ann Fancher, daughter of
Alanson and Lydia Fancher, was born
in Pound Ridge, Westchester County,
New York, July 20, 1912.
Early in life, she united with the
Ponnd Ridge Presbyterian Church of
which she was an active member until
1905 when owing to the death of her
parents she came to Iowa to make her
home with Mrs. A. P. Curtis, bringing
her church letter which she placed in
Morgan M. E. Church of which she
remained q loyal, faithful member till
she joined the church triumphant.
She leaves to mourn her loss, two Sis
ters, Mrs. Mary ]. Curtis and Mrs.
Florence Curtis, both of Orleans Town.
ship, also one brother, Ward l. Fsncher,
of Glen Cove, Long Island, also many,
many friends who will miss her smiling
face, gentle ways and kindly ministra-
tions.
Outside of the home of which she had
for thirteen years been a member, she
will be missed most of all by the Nor
gan Church and Sunday School where
she has been q devoted worker and
beloved teacher of the Women's Bible
Glass.
The funeral service at the home on
Tuesday afternoon, March 10th, was in
charge of her pastor, Rev. G. M. Shoe
maker, who used as scripture text:
II Corinthians SO, 1--WE make it our
aim whether at home or absent to be
we'll pleasing unto Him. This scrip
ture was especially appropriate, having
been put into practice by this conscien-
tious, Christian woman. Marguerite
Brown and Forrest Powers sang very
beautiful duet.
A large number of relatives, fri nds
and neighbors attended the service and
followed the remains to the Kendall
vile Cemetery whnre the body was laid
at rest. I.
The sympathy of q l6fge circle of
friends is extended to those bereft.

In months time Iowa has jumped
from twenty third to ninth in the per
capita sale of War Savings and Thrift
Stamps, according to report just re-
ceived by A. J. Thomson, county
chairman from Homer A. Miller of
Des Moines, state director of the Iowa
War Savings Stamp campaign.
Total sales in the state, according to
a treasury statement, amounted in
February to 81, $50, 5o9. SO which repre-
sents an investment of 65 cents for
every man, woman and child in the
state for the month. Total sales in the
state to date are $2,40O, ,679.96 which
represents per capita sale of $l.01.
Nebraska leaos all other states tor sales
during the month of February and in
total sales.
Mr.. Miller's report also shows that
the War Savings fund today has a
round 500, 000, 900 to its credit on the
books Of the treasury. The stream of
small savings is now pouring into I'm
Gle Sans war chest at the rate Of ST.
O0, 900, 900 year with every indication
that the anticipated rate of s.. .6sO, 900, :
600 will be attained soon after the Lib
erty Loan drive.
Altho figures are not yet available as
to the number of individuals who are
carrying Thrift Cards in their pockets
and cutting down their own spending
in order that the government may
spend more, the National War Savings
Committee estimates that at least
s, 600, coo Americans are now enlisted in
the War Savings army.
