splintered with 500 cases of whisky
loading her down. Near here rests
the one time submarine chaser Flor

examining her narrow hull and the
black of recent flames in her engine
room. Between them lay dismally the
sloop Roamer, with another 500 cases
of hooch beneath her matches.
1t was a night of terror for both
the coast guardsmen and the hijack-
ers. A heavy fog and rolling sea
made matters worse than ordinarily
would have been the case and in
measure contributed to the killing of
the three men of the Black Ducks
crew, which carried 400 sacks of
liquor.
The other two ships were captured

escape in the dense fog. The boats
seized were covering radius of $50
