Their fresh water and provisions were ruined by the seas which swept over the junk. At first owing to the heavy ses running it was dangerous to go to her assistance. We steamed alongside, how over, so as to give a rope.

I made signs to them to fasten the rope round the ship. Nearly everything on board had been carried sway. It was about 40 miles away from Cape St. James, and I thought it would have been easy to bring the junk to shelter in port, but on account of the
