311b Voyage Analyzed by a Bailor of the
Present Day.
Th* following I* a copy ofCapt.Cod-
mmn’a version of 8U Paul's voyage,
which wa* originally pabWMd * l * h *t*J|
years ago la the New Yortt Lining
Posu It waa called out by the eritjrtom
of Mr. George W. Brunt, edltorof the
Coast Pilot, on that account, who re
ferred to the anostle as "jo «d«>r.
ouc^ottV^SSn^. 1
■null out by ourselves. I wish to adopt
the twcirry-seventh chapter of the Acts
to his comprehension and to that of
other old salts before IJroceedJs* 3J
comment upon It. J shall.
aolde the English version of Kh>* James
an*l mslte a nautical trepidation,
* 1. And when they hail OOncluded tO
ship u* to Italy they turned l
the other prisoners over to a corporal
of marine* named J'inus.
2. And going on tfarl Of a ship be
longing to AdmctivtUum to (••*{ o«
from the wharf awl made all sail he<n>-
Imr close Into the Asldtlf shore. A Mhc-
eronlin ei-rytldman by the mmo of Ac
Istarcbua wa» a csbln Psssnnjer.
2. Next day we touched st Won- Ju
linn win very to w- J * l,w

and be treated by his friends.
t. We cot under way again •J')
up alone the Cyprus abore and tbs wind
( h.^\Vc *ot a hair slant over the Sea of
CUlcln and Pamphyll* and then put
ln «° There' the r.orDoral foundon Egyv-
Uan olUp hotline rnm Alexamhla. bound
to an Italian port, and ho ahlfted us
»nd our durma«e over to h-r.
I. She was n slow old ■tub, and after
a Vine passage we Just fetditd Cnidus,
nnd as wc ooud not weather Crete, we
ran down to tho leeward of It until wo
,l ‘».' i Jlauim« M iip on a taut bowltoa so
£
J Tnow. d'ye see. wa had made a Ion*
voyage Of H altogether, and as It looted
wourjly ahead and th ere wore eixr» Of
liJd weather. Paul called nil hand* aft,
"*10. "'shipmate*, title looks Ilkaa bad
busInMsi Olid If we keep on it Iwks
to me as If this shtp and rar*o will
come to grief, and innybe w«'Il lose the
number of our mess.”
II. But the corporal thought that the
skipper nod the owner know more
about thcas things than Paul.
12. And ao. every fellow having soma*
thlnr lo say about It, tho majority con
cluded that as this was not a very,
comfortable placo to winter In they
had better heave up tho anchor nnd
make nail for Phentve nnd winter
there. That ts » Cretan port and ha*
two channels, 'me to the northwest,
mid the other to tho iwulhwnrd and
" Ut! dlld nn. when the light southerly
lirenw sprang up they got under wray
and kept nlong the Cretan Shore.
It. But soon the wind hauled round
to tho northward and blew great guns.
It. As noon as tlie gale struck us nnd
we found rfhe would not lay up to the
wind, wo up helm and scud Uor be
fore 11. .. , ,
16. And getting under the lea of
t'Jnuda, we bad hard work to get tUe
boat we hnd boon towing alongside.
17. But they finally hoisted her up
to tho davits and ptMed n belly-lash
ing round the old ship lo thrap her lo.
gather. And then wo get out of tho
shoal we'lcr. having viewed un and
furled everything, and let her fun he.
fore It under bare poles.
II. Coming on to Wow harder nnd n
henvy am on next day, they hove
ovefboard Some of the cargo.
19. Next twenty-four hours coming la
hard gales mid ««s increasing, all
handa nnd passengers turned to and
hove overboard nil tho gear lying
about decks.
20. Weather so think Chat pro could
not get a meridian nltltudo of the sun
nor a lunnr obaervatloti for several
days. Oslo still continuing. Chances
look prelty bad.
31. In the meantime Paul had not
given any more advice, but now he
railed Itho oltleera together on the poop
ond aald: "Well, gentlemen, you hnve
iH'tter have taken my advice and laid
ouletly nl your nnchor In Crete, nnd
then It would not have been a case of
general average.
22. "Sllll knep a sHff upper lip nnd
believe me now when 1 tell you that
whatever may happen to the ship nil
bonds will lie wived.
29. “For the angel of the Lord stood
nlongsldo my buk tonight.
21. "And mid: 'Don’t be nfrald. You
arc bound to get to Caesar, and on
your deeount the whole crew and nil
the passenger* shall bo t-lktu care of.’
JS. 'Vo, nntlsawa don't gtv# up th*
ship yet, for I believe the Lord will do
ns he aald.
2G. "However, there I* no doubt but
wo ahnll finally lnae the Blilp."
2T. After knocking nbaut tn heavy
galea fer fourteen days. Just about
eight bells on the flrat watch the look
out wn the forecast! thought the water
waa shoaling.
!L Bo they hove the lead and got
twenty fathom.-. Next cast they got
flftecn.
29. Then, to keep her from poundlug
on the. rocka, they let go four nnchoni
over the otom and held on for day
light
30. Some of the crew thought that It
would tie a good rhlMico to desert when
they hnd the boat down In the outer
pretending to nro out n stream and
Ledge anchor to the windward.
* 21. J'uul told the corporal and the ma
rine guard that the kulri must come
aboard again, or clae nobody would be
saved.
32. Then the marine* eut tho bout's
painter and lot her go adrift.
33. At daybmik I*uul ordered the
steward to serve out rail.ate, for noody
had eaten anything for fiearteen days.
31. "So J advise you to attend to your
tneaa, fbr nobody shall leva a hair of hi*
head."
Si. When hr had aahl this he set the
example, thanking the Lord, and citing
his own grub. *
.31 That nude them alt lively, and
they made a heartv broakfhat.
27. The whole muster roll was 173 all
I eld.
31 And whon they bad knotted off
breakfast Obey hove overboard the rewt
of the canto.
39. At daylight thev could make but
the laml hm a ctvok made up Inland
which they thought might make a good
harbor.
41 And when thev hnd hove up tb_
aurhora they let fall tho MO and run
Aer dead on hml.
U. But she got caught In an eddy that
slewed her around no that her bows got
hard awl fiat aground, and hot stem
was knocked to oWcaa by the sea.
*2- The m irlnes wonted to knock the
prisoners in Um head to keep them from
swimming ashore and escaping.
t». But the corporal pud of regard Cor
TVtul. put a atanoer on them, ami or
dered all who could swim lo strike out
for the shore.
1L And those who could not to get on
to hen coopa. planks ami gangway u i
ders. The long and short of It was that
everybody got oshore sofe.
Cap:. Codman adds:
"As this ts a purely historical narra
tive. I tm sura that uo one will accuse
me or sn Irreverent aoa’lcwtlon of Scrto-
tura Indeed. I am seriously lacllned to
thtok that tn a bethel church my ver*
stow would carry mere conviction of
truth than that clothed ta tho old Eng
lish style pf men unacuualatsd with the
lanrusre of the geo.
“By reference to the a reek Testament
the careful ecVXer of the American
Coast Pilot will bo forced to admit th*
general eornetntn of tho translation.
It Is mainly because the old on# has
been the v.-ork of taudsraen tint other
seamen beside C. IV. a have ridiculed
Ht. Paul's claim 10 seumansalp. A care
ful study of tht chamer will show, how
ever, tb»t. comddertng th* hick of
charts, comma* and Chast Pilots, th*ss
ancient mariners did as well sa could
be exnwted under the circumstances,
and If they hnd taken the advice of
Paul they would hnve fared still better"

SOLID Ill.
Cumulative evidence of the harmony between this
store and the Macon public abounds, increases daily.
Always quick to respond to our enterprising efforts,
the great alertness and sharpness of recent responses
is as marked as it is gratifying. •
The confidence that our prices protect from all
imposition, the appreciation of the skill and boldness
displayed in the assembling of unequalcd stocks is
shown by multiplying sales. All this proves that the
absence of sophistry, affectation and exaggeration
from our advertising is not only proper, but wise.
