disasters to the coast fishing vessels in the recent great vale wore tne complete wrecks of two schooners with their crews Rockport Charles Jordan of save one survivor the schooner Helen Elka returned to tell the tale of his peril and escape the rest of her twelve brave sailors were svyept out of life as their craft went to pieces near Peak’s island in Portland harbor ieaving desolate five widows and seven orphans besides the mothers sisters or sweethearts who will mourn the unmarried seamen The captain became alarmed at the threatskies the on ening morning of the fatal The vioday and ran for Portland lence of the storm however came upon the vessel too soon both anchors were thrown out and lost the cables the rudder was snapping like thread powerless as a feather and in twenty minutes of uugovemed the running vessel struck the ledge Mr Jordan was in the forecastle stripping off his heavier clothes for the chance of life When the bow was smashed in and five men near him were k'iied instantly He immediately ran into the hold when a tremendous sea knocked him off the deck and he was swept into the With a coolness hardly raging waters creditable he realized his position ana swam for the wreck which he reached and clinging to it regained his breath Boon after he was fortunate enough to catch an empty barrel for which he abandoned the wreck The waves ran fearfully high and as he was borne along he passed two of his shipmates to nlank a He heard them clinging each speak of their fearful position and doubt whether they would be able to hold on and heard them interchange the promise that if either was saved he would tell tbe folks at home all about it It required J ordan’s utmost efforts to keep the barrel in position as the undertow was very powerful and so more perilous still was the endeavor to safely land upon a rocky ledge amid tenable surf the waves at one time heaving him toward the letke then rewould engulf him in their treating treacherous grasp threatening every moment to bury him beneath the water When he finally succeeded then came a toihome the jagged up ledge and he reached the top completeWhile renting he heard ly exhausted tho voice of a shipmate bailing some one He answeied telling where he was and encouraging (lie other to try and get upon the ledge but that was the last hoard of him He soon found that the ledge did not form a part of the island but was covered at high water and the tide was already coming Fo with brief respite he again in plunged into the seething waters another terrible conflict with the surf in which it seemed impossible for him to make any headway as his Words are strength was fast failing inadequate to describe such a situation Moments seemed like hours and the sullen roar of the waters as they beat upon’ tho rocks was on awful accompaniment to the burden of his fears After his desperate efforts had cleared him Irom the breakers his misfortunes were not over for he dropped into a fresh water pond as he climbed over a wall in his progress inland which was a supplementary calamity quite unnecesAn sary to the poor fellow's comfort fact is that this especially remarkable is the third time that Mr Jordan has been the sole survivor of disaster Out of a company of eighty confined in Libby prison during the war be was the ouly one who lived to return home and out of a crew of thirty men wrecked on Cape
