TILLAMOOK HEADLIGHT, FEBRUARY 27, 1908 | A WFUL TALE OF TIIE SEA. Emily Reed Sailors Suffer ed Beyond Belief. P ort T ownsend , Wash., Feb. 21.— Wrecked with the strandirg of the American ship Emily Reed when that vessel went to pieces on the rocks at the mouth of the Nehalem river February 15, the experience of three survivors who reached Cape Flattery, 200 miles distant, in an open boat, three days later, carries incidents not met with in marine adventure outside the wildest fancies of maritime fiction. Mate Fred Zube and Seamen Arthur Jahnke and Ewald Abildstedt, recovering from the effects of their exposure and hardship as casta, wavs, in the United States Marine Hog pital here, relate stories that put at naught other adventures of shipwreck in the history of Pacific Coast shipping. Ole Soriet, ship's cook, died from ex posure and thirst 50 hours after having been cast away, and 20 hours before his mates found safety in being blown into an anchored fishing schooner at Neah Bay, Wash. The sailors left the sinking ship in a i30-foot metal lifeboat. Being thrown in- to the sea amid wreckage from the breaking ship, their escape from founder ing in the wreckage was providential. Their outfit consisted of a single oar, and a lug sail of less than 40 square feet. A cask of water lashed to the’lifeboat was cast overboard, after having b<^*n ¡loosed of moorings by the fall of the [boat, and threatened to crush the limbs K>f the crew. I The voyage at sea for 70 hours was -one of constant hardship and unfavor, able circumstance. Not a particle of food was had, nor was their found a drop of water to quench the thirst of the struggling men. L The boat in which the men had left the ghip was an old one. Timbers that had fallen into it from the wrecked ship had opened many seeins and caused punctures that required the use of practically all the scant clothing worn to stay the in rushing water, The weather was cold and foggy. During darkness a passen ger steamer passed the castaways, who had no lights to signal with, Calls for aid were unheard and unheeded. When forsaken by the steamer, Cook Soriet gave up his fight for life. He begged and prayed for water ; demonia cally fought his companions, who sought to prevent his drinking from the sea. Stealthily he caught the frayed end of the small sail and sucked the canvass in hope of getting relief from moisture gathered from the overhanging fog. The act was suicidal, for the sail carried salt water from spray thrown over it. The cook’s death occurred in an hour, w ith the greatest of agony. Twenty houis later when help was reached, the remaining survivors were fill but overcome. Another hour and they would be unable to ask for assis tance. were such at hand. The legs and feet of all were distended and swollen be yond human proportions. Swollen tongues hung from parched throats. Hands were cut and lacerated in using for bailing a jaggedly-cut section of one the boat's air-tanks. So weak had the seamen of the party liecome when safety was reached that they were kept alive only by constant prodding and threats from Mate Zube. With a broken arm and head terribly cut, the mate handled the sail with his teeth, steered with his unbroked arm and directed every act oi the rescue. His eyes had not closed in sleep throughout the long battle against death. Eight lives‘were lost in the wreck. Captain Kessel, his wife and four mem bers of the crew escaped by remaining on the after part of the ship. This sec tion hung together until morning, when they were able to walk ashore at low tide.
