LAxDRUM BOYS SWAN
SIX HOURS IN STORM.

Edward the son of DIR. and Mrs. e
%. Bamar, of Hendersonville, while IN
school at Georgetown College, George
town, KY, finds time for reportorial
work on the Georgetown Times and
the following interesting and well pre-
pared story of the experiences of 9
Landrum boy, whose father used to
live in Asheville, will be of interest,"
to Hustler readers:
Shipwrecked after a terrific battle
of 72 hours with the elements, {
Georgetown College boy, now in col
ilege on a furlough from the, Navy,
swan six hours before he was washed
I'D on the Florida coast, four miles
from the reef on which his ship
struck.
His name isJoe Gentry. He vas OF,
the u. S. s. Monatauk, a small rnine-
sweeper, which was sunk August q
near Fernandina, Florida, after strik-
ing a reef near the coast. Nine men
were drowned in the disaster, the re-
mainder of the rew of twenty-five
reaching the shore in safety.
Gentry, whose home is in LandTum,
S. c., enlisted in the Navy at Colum-
bia, S. c., last spring. He was sent
to Charleston for training, and was
put on the Monatauk, as a first class
seaman three days before her dis
aster. He is a junior in the college.
Much Booze on Board
The Monatauk put out from Char
lesion on Saturday, August Is, bound
for France by way of Fernandina,
Florida, where a large consignment
of confiscated wei goods was taken
aboard. The lot consisted of 5000
gallons of whiskey, and about 200 bar
rels of bottled beer, 1t had been con-
iscated by the government, and was
destined for France.
On the trip over, the little boat,
which was only $50 feet in length,
ran into a West Indian hurricane, and
for three whole days and nights
the crew battled bravely to weather.
the storm. But the fates were agains:
them. The engine went out of COM
mission, and could not be repaired,
The crew attempted to anchor by
means of a 20OO-fb WINCH, and this
relieved matters somewhat for a time,
but this went by the board after q
hours of service.

If you care for heavy hair that glis-

O'Clock in the morning, the little ship
struck with a crash on a hidden reef.
Then the crew knew it was every man
for himself.
Navy Discipline Perfect
According to Gentry, there was no
disorder whatsoever at any tirle,
When the order was given to abandon
ship, although the men were absolute
ly worn out, and were staring almost
certain death in the face, the two
small life boats were filled in order, as
the captain called out the names Of the
crew.
The captain and the executive Off
Ger got into a dinghy boat only eight
feet in length. They thought they
had much less chance for safety than
did the crew, which was in a nineteen
%footer; it turned out, however, that
they were not swamped until they had
been swept within half a mile from
shore. The main life-boat, on the 9TH
er hand, was swamped III a few min-
utes, and the men had to rely on their
own resources. One or two could not
swim and these sank out of sight very
soon.
Gentry states that ne chung to a

was about to drown. He struck odt
for himself, and aided by the tide,
landed on the beach about nine
o'clock, after being in the water six
hours. The man to whom he gave the
oar reached shore a half hour later.
Nine Missing
When the roll was called, nine men
were reported missing. After it was
seen that all possible had been saved.
the crew took measures to find a habf-
tation, but this was located only after
a search of sixteen miles. When the
Navy department had been informed.
the s~hipwrecked mariners were taken
to Fernandina, Florida which was
nearby.
Here, Gentry states, they were
treated as conquering heroes. The
