her host severely cut and burned and
two other persons narrowly escaped
death at Wynne, Md. yesterday when
35-foot cabin cruiser burned to the
waters edge after an explosion which
threw the holiday pleasure seekers
into the Chesapeake Bay.
Mrs. John E. Berry. so. of Balt-
more, died in st. Mary's Hospital
early today from burns suffered in the
explosion.
r. Legare Webb, owner and captain
Of the boat, suffered burns and cuts
when he was hurled from the wheel
house by the force of the blast, said
to have been in the bilge compart-
ment in the boats stern.
Mrs. Webb and her nephew, Walter
Heenan, 19. who were riding forward,
escaped with shock when they were
thrown into the water.
The cruiser. the Twenty Grand, had
put into the wharf operated by c. r.
Lewis, jr., on Smiths Greek, 81 miles
south of here. and was putting back
out into the bay when the explosion
occurred. The wheelhouse, with Mr..
Webb, was blown several feet away.

both of Ridge, jumped into a skiff
and rowed out to rescue the four per-
sons in the water. The injured were
given first aid treatment by DR.. G. 1.

This was the second accident of
this kind here this year. In March
an almost identical cruiser was blown
up with 10 persons aboard, all of them
being injured. Both mishaps were
believed to have been caused by the
accumulation of gas below decks.
