WALKER CARWILE WRITES
FROM LISBON, PORTUGAL
Says Portugese Have Just Had Annual
Revolution?On Way To
Canaries or Africa.
Frank Carwile of Antreville has
just received the following letters
from his son, Walker Carwile, an
Erskine graduate who is seeing much
of the world from the decks of a
merchant ship. The first letter is dated
at Lisbon, Portugal, October 31,
and is as follows:
Dear Father:?Put in here . this
morning for repairs. The Portugese
have been enjoying their annual Revolution
but the festivities ended a
day before we got here. The casualties
are five dead and probably some
billion or so milreis ($1.08) stolen.
There are five war vessels at anchor,
mostly French and English, I think.
I have not been ashore here but
a1-m to do so tomorrow as we will be
here three or four days, Iunderstand.
Lisbon, viewed from a distance, is
I *
one of the most beautiful cities I
have seen but when seen at closer
range it is very dirty, I am told. The
country hereabouts is hilly and covered
with vineyards. Many of the
hills are surrounded by castles. The
houses have various colored roofs,
red, white and green seeming most
popular. They are almost all built
of stone. The country is wretchedly
poor and the money in a constant
state of fluctuation.
I was ashore for a little while in
Bordeaux but didn't get to see much
of the city. Our wireless operator left
us in Bordeaux fend our supercargo
in Hamburg. The wireless operator |
was from North Carolina and the
supercargo from Union, S. C. His
name was W. J. Sarratt. Probably
you have heard of the family. Both
of them were fine fellows and I hated
vorv miipti +n aoa t.hpm 1p?vp. hepfllise
there are very few Americans and
still fewer Americans from the South
on American ships.
We go from here to Tenerife,
Canary Islands, and from there to
Dakar, French, Senegal (Africa.)
Will probably be back in the
States sometime next April. Must
quit the African run on account of
fever. Had a severe attack of it in
Hamburg. I think I will try the Far
East next. Js Julian stationed permanently
at Charleston? I would, like
to settle in Charleston and will do
so if.I can find a suitable run out of
there. New York does not suit me at
all. I want to work down in the United
States. Your son,
Walker.
Another letter dated November 4,
/ '
follows: *
Dear Father:?We are staying here
longer than we expected to but' we
?211 U-LI :i 4.:
win pruuauiy sail sume tunc tuu?*y ui
tonight for Tenerife. I have been
ashore twice but I don't suppose I
will go any more unless we come
back this way. There is a rumor now
that we will go to Axim on the West
coast of Africa and load for Pensacola,
Florida, but that will no doubt
be changed before we get to the
coast. I thjnk that we will go back
to Hamburg. Walden and I have just
finished making a ladder and it was
quite a job as neither of us are very
expert at the process. We intend to
get as mucfi experience as poslible
in seamanship so that when we . get
our license and there should be no
jobs we can go as seamen. Jobs are
still scarce in 'the United States, I
understand.
i am expecting1 some man wnfn
we get down to the Canaries. We
have been able to get some English
and American papers here but they
are all European editions and do
not contain much of interest to us. I
would certainly like to get some papers?from
home because out here
you are completely out of touch with
any thing that happens back there.
We will probably spend Christmas
on the African coast, possibly in
Loanda, Portugese Colony of West
Africa. I will write you again from
Tenerife. Your son,
Walker.

A Suicide.
