STRUCK BY THE STORM
IN INIS PORT

First Mate was Washed
Overboard During the
Gale
VESSEL HAO CLOSE CALL
The Provisions Were Al| Spoiled
By the Water and for Several
Days the Crew of the Ves
sel Was Without Food!
After being at the mere/ of the
waves for several days, du/lug which
time the captain and nrew fought
heroically to save their/ vessel, and
during which the first mate was wash
ed overboard and drowned, and all
of the provisions lost Jr spoiled, the
British schooner Broolmjb in com
mand of Capt. O’Haraytulved in this
port yesterday in distress.
The Brooklyn wa/ en route from
Weymouth, Nova Sfeotin to Havana,
A,er being our for some time the
schooner encountered the severe
gale which prevailed along the coast
a few days ago./ The schooner was
almost wrecked /and at me time it
was thought, tha/t she would go down
in spite of the efforts made to save
her by the captkln and the crew.
The first matin who was on deck
during the storuv was washed over
board by the wswis which rushed
over the vessel’s /deck, and it was
impasibflie do <ey/\n make an effort
to rescue him. /
I The entire /deck load of the
schooner was/washed overboard ana
the water washed over the top deck
into the cabins and galleys of the
schooner, tUere not being a dry spot
aboard of Her.
Part of l/er sails were carried awav
by the gale, but the captain and his
crew of eight men remained at their
posts an fought through the gale.
For days they have been practically
without ood, as the water fllooded
the galley /'.nd all of the provisions
were eitlier washed away or so bad
ly damaged that they could not ho
uspd. The, salted moats, which were
carried on ttajsotjeoner were not eve i
saved. At one /ime it looked as
though starvation stared Captain
O’Hara and hi f men in the face and
when the vessel arrived in this port
yesterday thpe was not a mouthful
to eat on b<Mrd.
After tin/ Brooklyn had reaped
the storm./with a few of her sails
left, the captain headed for the near
est port, t/id, with a very good breeze
prevailing! suofeeded in making St.
Simon lijht yesterday and was tow
ed up td~4*e quarantine station in
the afternoftß.
Captain i>Hara came up to flic city
later in the afternoon and related
his thrilling experience;. However,
he only spent a short time in the city,
securing some provisions and return
ing to his vessel.
’ The" captain stated that there were
eight feet of water In his vessel.
She will probably undergo the nec
essary repairs in this port and con
tinue on her voyage to Havana.
The schooner Brooklyn has been
to this port several times for car
goes, and Capt. O’Hara has many
friends in the city who will regret
to learn of the accident to his ves
sel, but who will congratulate him on
escaping with his life and preventing
the destruction of hie vessel.

bo reached b.vi phone and il was im
possible lo gfcl any direct informa

these mills will be cosed.
A News representative saw an em

and in answur to tiie question he
said lie thought the mills would bo
closed down until the first of Jan

The (News understands that the
mill of the company on the Satilla

Several reasons have been assign

The people of Brunswick will of
