ture. The bird of i'll omen circled
round and round the Corydon ard
then for a brief moment lit OF Tie
spar. Again the big bird circled, fol
lowing the raft for many miles.
Such was the story told last night
by F.. Addison, in charge of sup:r-
cargo aboard the liner, who, with
eight others of the Corydon's
crew, was brought to this city Thurs
day afternoon by the schooner Island
Home after being adrift on an up
turned lifeboat fifty-three hours with
out food and water. Although terri
bly, bruised and battered, Addison
and the others we're at least able TO
tell their experiences during the two
days they fought the storm on board
the Corydon and the nearly three
days they were afloat on the lifeboat.
Expected Trouble.
"I knew something was going to
happen to the ship when I saw that
Bird said Addison, ''and when it
kept following us mile after mile, |
told the captain and the crew, but
nobody would listen to me-"
All. day Sunday as the ship pur-
sued her way in calm seas and light
winds, the great bird hovered over
board.
Sunday night and Monday the Cory
don staggered through smashing
seas. Monday night every member of
the crew was engaged in desperate
battle for life. There was no food,
as the galley and provision room
were flooded.
Tuesday morning, Addison said,
they lost control of the ship. The
wireless apparatus was short-circtit-
: ed and no S. O. S. calls could be sent
out.
When the vessel went under, the
Americans kept their heads and saved
the lives of some others of the crew
of thirty-six.
Clung to Lifeboat.
ct slid against a lifeboat and clung
to it when the Corydon listed" said
Addison. "Mallowes was at the other
end. I drew out my razor and slashed
at the lashings. Mallowes cut them
at the other end. The lifeboat and l
shot into the sea together. Luckily it
landed right side up and I got in. All
the oars were lashed to it,
Addison helped nine other men
into the lifeboat. A few moments
afterward the Corydon went down.
Addison called to Capt. christensen,
but the latter would not leave the
ship.
Battle With Storm.
Almost Immediately the heavy seas
capsized their lifeboat three times,
as fast as the men could dive from
under it and right it again. They
lashed themselves to the seat with
strips of clothing. The boat was
under the water most Of the time with
only the mems heads out. The boat
could not have weathered the storm
in any other position, Addison de-
clared.
Third Mate Mallowes told a graphic
story of his battle with John Condor,
a Greco-American seaman, when the
