This heroism Of the sea was de-
scribed tersely in the messages the
master of the Gulf Gem handed his
wireless operator while he directed
the movement of lifeboats across a
rough sea lighted by the Petrols
flaming hulk Friday night.
Finally when at 80 p. m. the
Petrol, blazing from foremost to
poop, plunged to the bottom, the
Gulf Gem saluted her master with
a series of blasts from her horn, and
proceed toward Charleston, S. c.,
where she will land the survivors to-
night or Sunday.
One of the men who died with
Captain Sears was George Binnin-
ger. The others name was not
known.
Life Boats Picked Up
The series of messages from the
Gulfgem was picked up by radio
marines Tuckerton IN. j. station.
The Gulfgem, bound from Port
Arthur, Tex, to New York with
cargo of crude oil, came upon the
petrol, her middle quarters ablaze,
approximately 100 miles due east of
Wilmington, Della. The tanker Tri-
Mountain arrived at about the same
time.
The Gulfgem, loaded with an in
f1amable cargo, did not dare APP
proach too closely, She picked up
a lifeboat containing sixteen men.
The sea was mounting and the
petrol was settling slowly as the fire
ate away her sides.
In the intense light of her blazing
cargo of crude oil, about sixteen
men could be seen huddled to-
gether on the bow, the only part of
the ship not af1ame.
Captain Sticks to Post
The Gulfgem lowered a life boat
that approached the Petrol bow
and half hour later pulled away
with ten of the doomed tankers
crew. 1t landed them on the Gulf
gem and returned for the others.
Eight more men were taken off.
Captain Sears and two men re-
manned. A few minutes later the
Petrol plunged to the bottom. The
wireless from the Gulfgem read:
The burning Cities Service Petrol

after eight men had been taken off
