tides are treacherous.
The last few miles Of her
journey, Marilyn had to swim
across shipping lanes and several
large liners altered their course
to give her a clear path. But
they, too, kept within watching
distance.
She virtually sprinted the last
200 yards, apparently still fear
full that she'd be pulled back by
the tides. When she got near
the waters edge, she stumbled,

walked the last few feet out Of
