It was Mr. Scar' borough who brought me U> Conway and not Mr. Buck. I had been to my son's, J. M.

But the God that was in the I lion's den was down in the mud and water with me, :/td my buggy was ' broke in pieces and I was under the wreck and the mule was on her feet and drug me a little space and I crawl ed out from the wreck v/.ot and muddy, bare-headed and 1 haven't seen my hat nor my $5.00 eye glasses since. | There 1 was in a helpless condition I but providence provided for mb when ' the good Samaritan came along and took me up and carried me to the doctor and he gave me some aid and a hat to put on my muddy head. I bought me some dry clothes but could not get them on until about night at ! my son's, W. E. Skipper's. I can ;j get off the bed, but it puts me to my( j best, but by the help of the good Lord I X shall get able to preach again and 1 have been a tax payer many years - and I have paid for those trap bridges , to be ballustered.

The fato of the others stilt was in doubt, but as the hours lengthened since the Arabic met with swift destruction, hopes that the others may have been saved faded. The announcement that only eight of the passengers were supposed to be lost bore out earlier reports that thfc gre.it majority of the missing were members of the crew. : ? Capt. William Finch gave testimony to theN heroism of his engineers and firemen, several of whom remained at their posts to the last and probably sacriliced their lives.
