amog the Boston alumni was con-
Quoted by II. Philip Patey of the
class Of 'S4, who has always been one
of the most active members of the
Boston organization. The funds col
lected from the alumni were supple

entertainments given by the Acad-
envy students the past year The pi-
ano was selected during the Christ

brave men at the stern exposed to the
fire. every minute raging more fiercely,
and to the likelihood OF a terrific ex-
plosion. That he was able to make this
decision, relying confidently upon the
spirit of his crew and their loyal devo-
tion to their leader. again illustrates the
iron discipline which was maintained on
the mystery ship.
The first explosion had destroyed the
voice tube by means Of which Capt.
Campbell communicated with his gun
crew. He therefore had to make his
decision without keeping his men in
formed of the progress Of events--infor-
nation very helpful to men under sucn
a strain: but he we'll knew that these
men would understand his action and
cheerfully accept their role in the game.
Yet the agony Of their position tested
their self-control to the utmost. The
deck on which they lay every momens
became hotter; the leather Of their shoes
began to smoke. but they refused TO
budge-for to fee to a safer place meant
revealing themselves to the submarine
and thereby betraying their secret. They
took the boxes Of cordite shells in their
arms and held them UP as high as pos.
sible above the smoldering deck, in the
hope Of preventing an explosion which
seemed inevitable. Never did Christian
martyrs, stretched upon a gridiron, suf-
fer with greater heroism.
1t was probably something of a re-
lief when the expected explosion took
place. The submarine had to go only
200 yards more to be under the Are
of three guns at a range of 400 yards.
but just as 1t was rounding the stern
the German officers and men, stand
ing on the deck, were greeted with
a terrific roar. Suddenly a conglom-
Grafton Of men. guns and unexploded
shells was hurled into the air. The
German crew, of course, had believed
that the vessel was deserted hulk.
and this sudden manifestation of life
on board not only tremendously star
tied them. but threw them into
panic.
The four-inch gun and its crew Was
blown high into the air. the gun
landing forward on the well deck,
and the crew in various places. One
man fell in the water: he was picked
UP, not materially the worse for his

These were arguing respecting the
contents and value of the box, one

that. One, who seemed to be their
leader. was about to unfasten the
ropes, but another claimed that this
was his due. So, from angry words,
they came to blows, and by the grace
OF God (whose name be exalted) they
drew their knives, and three of the
four were slain. The fourth removed
the ropes and opened the box, think

Far under the surface went and

but the box was strongly and cum

began to fill and sink once more. and
again tasted all of the final pangs.
Throughout all this time, a strong
current was bearing the box along,

"Oh, Allah" l cried, "if it be thy

Even as I spoke something stayed
the onward progress of the box. 1t

men began to draw me into the boat,
/ praising Allah the while.
But when they had the box upon
the edge Of the boat and heard my
voice proceeding from within. and

room by one door, as the wall entered

"Ah" cried the wall. clapping his
hands. "Slaves! what is this?
And people came running to his COM

boat. which, all this time, had been
drifting in the neighborhood. 1t Is
one of the miracles of this war that
not one of the other members of the
crew was killed. The gashed and
bleeding bodies of several were
thrown back upon the deck: but
there was none SO seriously wound
ed that they did not recover. In the
minds Of these men, however, their
own sufferings were not the most dis
tressing consequences of the explo-
sion; the really unfortunate fact was
that the sudden appearance Of men
and guns in the air informed the Ger
mans that they had to deal with one
of the ships which they so greatly
. dreaded. The game. SO far as the
Duntaven was concerned. was appar-
entity up. The submarine vanished
under the water. and the Englishmen
well knew that the next move would
be the firing of the torpedo which
could confidently be expected to end
the Q-boat's career. Some Of the
crew who were not incapacitated got
hose and attempted to put out the
fire while others removed their
wounded comrades to as comfortable
quarters as could be found.
Presently the wake Of the torpedo
could be seen approaching the ship;
the explosion that followed was a
terrible one. The concussion of the
previous explosion had set off the
"open-fire" burgers at the gun posi-
tions-these buzzers being the usual
signals for dropping the false work
that concealed the guns and Begin
ming the fight. The result was that,
before the torpedo had APPARENTLY
given the Dunraven it's quietus, all
the remaining guns were exposed
with their crews. Capt. Campbell now
decided to fight to the death. He sent
out message notifying all destroy
ers and other anti-submarine craft.
as well as all merchant ships, not to
approach within thirty miles. A de-
stroyer. should she appear. would
force the German to keep under wa
ter. and thus prevent the Dunraven
from getting shot.

and also sinking from her torpedo
wound-and so prevent any further
combat. For the resourceful Capt.
Campbell had already formulated an.
other final plan by which he might
entice the submarine to rise within
range Of his guns. To carry out this
plan, he wanted plenty of sea room
and no interference; so he drew .
circle in the water, with a radius of
thirty miles, inclosing the space
which was to serve as the prize
ring" for the impending contest.
His idea was to fall in with the Ger
man belief that the Dunraven had
reached the end of her tether. A hastily
organized second "panic party jumped
into remaining lifeboat and raft and
rowed away from the sinking and burn
ing ship. Here was visible evidence to
the Germans that their enemies had
finally abandoned the fight after nearly
four hours of as frightful gruelling as
any ship had ever received. But there
were still two guns that were concealed
and workable. There were, as already
said, two torpedo tubes one on each
beam, and a handful Of men were kept
on board to man these. Meanwhile Capt.
Campbell lay prone on the bridge look
ing through u peephole for the appear
ance Of the submarine, constantly talk
ing to his men through the tubes, even
joking them on their painful vigil.

say, quoting Bairnsfather, "go to itl'
Remember, lads" he would call at
another time, that the king has given
this ship the V. c."
