Thrilliuf; Exporionco of a St Law
ronce Fisherman.
Mr. 11. F. Pclerloc, keeper of the
AVry Ifeitd Light, relates the followin"
remarkablo personal experience while
m a fishing voyage to the (Irand Hanks
if Newfoundland eight years since:
"My father and my grandfather
were both Methodist ministers, and
when 1 was a boy I used quite fre
qucutlvlo hear thcin read from the
Scriptures the Ktory of Jonah. In those
day.-, however, tho account made no
very great impression on my mind, but
1 now read it with a peculiar interest
and sympathy, for 1 .sometimes think
there is not probably :i living man
whose experience ho closely resembles
the ancient prophet's as my own.
"Like litany another Cape Ann boy.
my first experience of life was as a
fisherman. I went to the 'Hay,' as we
used to term tho (ittlf of St. Lawrence,
when I was fourteen years old, .ship
ping on tho .schooner Secret upon 'half
lines,1 as wa thet the phrase, meaning
that I had half the cod, halibut or
mackerel which I could catch, the other
half going to the owners of tho vessel.
For five years I wa out on this 'lay'
every season and made fair wajres.
The bust year 1 wra.s on the schooner
JCtlna awl Ilarolil, Skipper Croom.
There was a crew of eleven, ineludinr
the captain and cook, a mulatto named
Desaye. On tho night of the 23th of
August, (this being our second trip that
.summer), we wcro run down by some
large vessel, a steamer, 1 judged by the
sound, and every houl on board
drowned saTO myself.
"The schooner was lying at anchor,
' with lights up as usual. I had turned
in that night ahortly lifter eleven
o'clock; there was then no fog, but a
Jiiist may have, risen later, as it often
diil. From a saitnd nap I was wakened
suddenly by a loud shout of 'Ship ahoy!'
and a clatter of feet on deck. At the
same instant I was aware of a rushing,
roaring noise, and a deep sound like the
turning of a propeller's screws. There
were .shouts, too, at a little distance.
Captain Croom and two sailors Cates
and Smith by name, who were in the
cabin, but loss soundly asleep, perhaps,
then 1 jumped out of their berths.
4ind rushed up tho ladder. Hut before I
could follow their example, I felt the
swash of a large wave against the
schooner, followed the same instant by
a horrible crash against our broadside.
"1 was thrown hoadlong. Tho
lantern fell olT its p.ig. and went out.
Hunk-boards, bed-clothes and boxes
fell about mo and upon me. Then
came another terrible shock, accom
panied by a surging noise, and I could
feel horrible sensation! that our little
vessel was boing borno down and
careening over! There was a ponder
ous. grating.crunching noise overhead,
mingled with terrified shouts and cries.
'Then the water rushod into tho cabin,
drenching mo in a moment. I rose,
half-swimming in it, amidst tho boxes,
boards mid clothes. For some mo
ments the same heary, grinding noiso
continued overhead. It was tho keel
of the large vessel passing over us
-crushing us down! I oven heard the
thrashing of her huge screw. Wo were
-it that moment twenty feet under
water, thrust bodily down by the sheer
weight and momentum of the steamer.
:md that, too, before our little craft
had had time to fill or sink; for the in
stant the steamer's keel passed off her.
1 fe.r the schooner give a mighty lurch,
which pitched me headlong again; and
then she rcs'i to the surface.
"Half -strangling, and tumbling
sdwut. 1 gained a foothold, and stand
ing up, found my head clear of water.
1 was stiil in. the cabin, but the water
came up to my waist. I was so dazed
that L had little idea what had hap
pened at first; "1 thought for a time
that the schooner had sunk, and I won
dered that tho water did not till her
-and drown me; but after a few mo
.xnents 1 felt the motion of the waves,
and knew t!Mi that wo were still afloat.
1 say tec, for I did not thon know that
I was tho only person left alive on
rboard. Immediately, too, I made tho
discovery, -by stepping about and tak
ing hold of the objects around me, that
I was standing on the ceiling of our lit
tle cabin, or in other words, the under
side of the dccV. and that the schooner
-was eonscqueutly capsiied, or nearly
so, and floating keel upward. Then for
kind of platform above the water, on
which I drew up my body. After a
time, too. I b"gan to be hungry and
thir.st3'. There was no food in the
cabin. At times the hulk floated in the
mid.it of .schools of cod. hake and per
haps other fish. I could hear them in
the sea, all around and beneath me,
for sounds in the water were borne in
to in- with curious di-tinctness. I
knew that fishing-vessels mhrht be
cruising near by, and after every few
minutes I would shout as loud as I
could. My voice had such a .strange,
muffled sound that it frightened me to
hear it.
"Night came on aain, as I knew by
the fading out of the wavy, shadowy
light; the wind rose, too, and soon the
hulk rolled so much that the water in
tho cabin slopped over me at every
lurch. The dreary terror of such a
long, dark night. I will not attempt to
describe. I was in con-iunt apprehen
sion lost the schooner should roll over
and sink. The wind fell toward morn
ing, and there was fog again, as I con
cluded, for the light was fainter than
on the previous day for a good many
hours. Then it jrrew brirht"r. I
hoard a bell and horns, at a distance,
which I knew proceeded from fishing
vessels, signalling to their boats. Re
peatedly I shouted at the top of my
lungs, but was unable to attract atten
tion. "That day three or four seals came
about the hulk, and often climbed on
it; I could hear them grunting and
'blowing' in the water, as they fished
about the schooner: and during the
afternoon the hulk drifted amidst a
school of herring. I could hear the
patter of the herring against the plank
ing outside, and hundreds of them
came in at the gangway beneathlill
ing the water in the cabin. I could
see them dimly, and with a tin basin 1
dipped up fifty or sixty, which I put in
a box. For by this time I had become
so nearly famished as to eat tiiese raw
fish. Hut I was even more thirsty than
hungry, and at tim-s felt tempted to
drink my fill of the salt water, though
I knew from the testimony of sailors
whom I had heard talk, that the efl'eets
of drinking it would be fatal to me.
Sometimes 1 thought that it would be
better to drink it and be crazy than to
live longer, in a sane condition, in such
dreadful plight.
"Another night of comparatively
calm weather passed, and on this night
1 slept considerably, but was aroused
an hour or two before daylight by
some ponderous body which 1 think
must have been either a shark or a
whale sporting about the schooner.
First it butted its head against the
hulk (rooting it about as a pig might a
pumpkin). Several times the creature
gave, vent to a deep, monotonous
groan. There may have been a num
ber of them instead of one. and this
was perhaps their mode of communi
cating with each other. I felt some
fear lest they might roll the hulk over.
Suddenly one of the creatures dealt the
vessel a tremendous blow with its tail,
probably. For a moment I was near
ly stunned by the concussion, and then
waited breathlessly for some time,
dreading a repetition of the stroke.
Hut I heard nothing further from these
rough visitors. The blow was appar
ently their parting slap.
"During the day which followed. 1
experienced considerable difficulty in
breathing and was seized with dread
fully sharp pains in my chest. When
these had subsided 1 fell asleep, and
than the wolf. He lurked every whe.e
about the wooded paths to spring upon
the unwary traveler. Stretched along
water, and a ball crashed into the hull the overhanging branch of Mime trie,
over my head, shattering it so much or concealed in the bu.shes bv the w v-

daylight through the broken planking.
It nearly dazzled me my eyes had
been so long accustomed to the gloom
of my prison. I redoubled my shout

other ball would come through the
side of the hulk, I crouched down,

Hailwajr Trains In t:itl(in.
A. F. (lodfrey, a hair-dreer and
dealer of St. Louis, ha.- invented a
method of taking up and discharging
passengers and goods from railway
trains which is decidedly novel. The
working model and drawings show a n ont
main track on the level and anVlevated
track in front of an elevated .station
with inclined tracks leading to it. The
idea is to -tart a train from one termin
us and not have to top or slacken
.speed until it reaches the other. A:
the .same time pa.-scng r- may betaken
up or discharged at any -tatim . As a
train reaches a station on the main
track, the rear car .switches oft nnd
nms up the inclined plane to the el.-
