The plight of the men is due in part 'to the heroic devotion of their carptain, who who' help was at. hand, chose to face dea rather than aban lon his ship and 1r cargo of lum.ber. He declined an ffer of assistance from the steamer 'Partma, which ran down, to him last Sundity when he was wallowing in the seas, 600 miles east'' otf Trida. The captain asked only that he :be given supplies to replace those which were ruhlded wheti ;1s shlp filled with water-;' "When this reques,t was grant - ed the, t4iptain and his crew settled down in,their precarious quarters on the root of 'the after.house and an nounced their doterminatlon to sail the Sirocco to Cuba. The Sirocco sailed from St. John, N. B., Sept. 27 with a cargo of lum ber for Cardenas. On Oct.. 5 when off the coast. of Maryhtnd, she ran into a fearful hur ricane. Pounded and battered by wind and sea, the Sirocco was thrown about like a cork, some of her seams were ripped open and 4he began to till.
