about noon a northwest hurricane sprang
up quickly and blew with all force pos
sble until noon Of the following day. Dur

seven years ago. They survived all the
terrors of warfare and Mr.. Mirsky was
waiting at the pier to greet them as the
ship came in. Immediately afterward
the ships surgeon Informed Mr.. Mirsky
that his wife was critically Ill and would
die in a short time. She was suffering
from an internal tumor and her condition
was aggravated by the heavy seas. With
her husband and children at her side,
she died two hours after the ship arrived
party of six Roumanian immigrants
on board the ship had friends waiting to
take charge of them, but the immigration
authorities decided that the inspectors at
Ellis Island would have to investigate the
case. 1t was stated that Roumanians are
beginning to immigrate freely to the
United States.
Among the passengers were NIr. and
