As I was put in the boat he cried. six women. Ten of us left our husbands behind, believing that they would soon follow; but In less than an hour we were all widows. One little boy about 8 years old whoso paronts were not with us soon fell asleep, and one of the men took off his coat and wrapped it around the boy and placed him on the floor. "The ocean was as calm as a lake and that's what saved us from being drowned, for several of the imen like myself whose husbands had been left behind, were becoming unmanageable, but the reassurances from tho men who were rowing us that our husbands would soon follow in other boats quieted us.

It must have been five minutes after when tho big ship parted In the middle. Then another explosion followed and slowly tiie huge vessel began to sink. "We didn't realize what was happening.
