Three GoWrille men narrowly es
caped drowning in Lake^ Murray &t-
urday evening .when, after their 12-
foot outboard motorboat had capsized
in a squall, they" clung to the bottom
of the drifting vessel for four hours
in rough stormy water until rescuers
attracTed^ by their shouts brought
them to safety.
" Edgar A. Stubbs of 1820 Heyward j
street, Columbia, owner of the res
cue boat, iin which he with three oth

and saved its occupants, said%ie didn’t
think any of the trio could have held
on another half hour. -
“The only thing that^ ?aved them,”
he al.so .said, “was the stiff wind that
w’as' blowing tow’axd shore and enabled
their shouts for help to be'heard.
They were far out. One of the men
in the party said the boat at first had
drifted toward the shore but had been
driven out |igain by the squall.”
The three Goldville men were A. D.

the craft that tipped over, and F.

Mr. Stubbs said one member of the
rescued trio-told him they were sail
ing up the middle of the lake^ from
the dam about 4 or 4:30 in the after
noon when the squall srtuck. In high
waters and with a stiff wind blowing,
the man at the Outboard motor turned
the tiller loose. As it flapped around
despite desperate efforts of the tiller-
nun to bring the craft under control,
the vessel drifted into 'a trough where
a wave slapped it over.
Doctor Wyman said that he was
driving f^*om Columbia to hii cottage
at Lake Murray Saturday night when
he was stopped by Mrs. Ed Butter,
who was occupying a cottage
that of the doctor and who told him
that screams for help had been heard
coming from the lake. ..
The physician sped at once to Bal-
lentine’a laji^ing where he informed
llr. Stubbs and a^ Mr. PoUait, oper-
atox* of a small motorboat there, of
^ situation..
Mr. Stubbs and his three compan
ions, in the face of darknaat, ehoppy,
stormy waters and high wind, and
with no exact idea of the location of
the vessel in distress, started down
the lake in Mr.,>Siubbs’ 36-foot cruis-

boat.
Three times the Stubbs craft stop

that were growing feeMe. Groping in
the dark, the ’ rescue crew Ahrew the
beams of a flashlight over the waters.

their goal. In the beams of the flash
