Its crew determined upon herol¢ measures, Putting on life-belts, the sailors jumped from the wet decks, and sei out through the breakers for shore.

They scrambled down the high and treacherous embankment and waded out into the surf. Desperately fight- ing the wild waves to retain thejr footing and forming a chain by the holding of hands,, they seized the sailors one by one as they were flung almost helplessly towards the shore by the breakers. Several 'of the farmers were themselves thrown about by the waters, but all manful- bers of the crew had been safely ly stuck with the job till many mem bers of the crew were safely dragged on shore.
