Queenstown.— W ith nine dead sail* ore stretched on her deck, eight men lying wounded belong, and her sides riddled with «hot and shell, the British steamship Anglo-Cell tornlan .steamed Into Queenstown harbor after having withstood the attack of a German sub marine for four hours. The ship’s escape from destruction was accomplished with no other means Of defense than the indomitable spirit of her captain and crew, combined with masterly seamanship, which en abled her to frustrate the efforts of her assailant to torpedo her. The story of how Captain Parslow stood on the bridge of the Anglo-Cali fornian amidst a rain of shot, and calmly directed the movements of his ship «»til he was killed by a shall, and of how his place was taken by his son until British destroyers appeared and the »ubmartne was compelled to flee, was told by the survivors. -O ur captain was a brave man,- said one of the narrators. “ He kept st his post on the bridge, coolly giving or ders as the submarine circled around vainly seeking to g et a position from which It could give us a death blow with torpedoes. AU the while the underwater boat continued to rain shot and shell upon us and a t times was so close that she was able to em ploy her guns effectively. "At last one shell blew the captain off the bridge, killing Jilm outright and terribly mutilating him.” The son of Captain Parslow, serving M second mate, was standing by his father’s side when the latter was k ill ed. The soa was knocked down by the violence of the explosion. Spring ing to his feet, he seised the wheel and, as ably as his father had done, continued dodging the submarine un til British destroyers appeared.
