already expected to see land. Shad-

Then we realized that our motor
might die at any moment, and be-

Kubala prepared our rubber boat
and started to get out of some of
his clothes, advising me to do the
same.
End Was Near
Then, at 1870, we got an intense
breath OF burning oil fumes. and we
knew that the end was near. BY
this time we were on ship lane and
soon we sighted two vessels. We
dropped a note to one of them tell

Then there was the thought that

and that our countrymen there
were hoping to receive us with
honor. We were filled with regret
that we may be deprived Of our
chance to see the great new world
