Here's another story. l got it
from a yeoman off a u. s. de-
stroyer. This yarn is logged in
y. S. Navy records.
On February 10th. 1921, the de-
stroyer was cruising northward
off the coast of Peru. The whole
crew had been talking of the
peculiar transparency of the air
that enabled them to see for
miles. While dead abeam of the
Mejillones islands the lookout
reported sail: a small boat with
three men in fixed attitudes.

thing was that while the destroy

They never found out where
the boat came from. probably
castaways from some wreck.
But what they couldn't under
stand at first was why il took
forty-five hours of steaming for
the destroyer to come up with

The mystery was solved by
that uncanny clear atmosphere.

mighty queer feelings on board.
BY sunset they had not lessened
the distance. That night from
wardroom TO fo'c's'le the talk
was of phantom ships and i'll
omens. and every man Jack of
the ships company was on deck
at the crack of dawn TO see that
small boat still a mile ahead!
The commander called for full
steam and the destroyer piled up
a bow wave high as her fo'c'sle
as she ploughed through a nasty
cross-chop towards the mystic
rious craft. All that day the lit
tie boat kept its station. Next
morning the destroyer was out
