were sleeping and they came
tumbling up on deck," he said.
The crew execpt for Captr Ab
bott and the cook abandoned the
trawler at once. The submarine
then sprayed her with machine
gun bullets and moved swif'ly
away.

marine again swung into view
and started to shell my h!p,"

100 feet away at the time."
