SAILING, SHIP TRAGEDIES.
By contrast with this spectacle of great liner providing her own funeral pyre to be seen by the number of a township of people,
let us think for a moment of the countless little ships, the sailing vesels of old which must have gone through fire to their ultimate un recorded, disasters.
No wireless for them when the cry of "Fire"
came; only the crew, black, blistered, and weary, manning the pumps hour after hour in hopeless fight, the deeks hotter and hotter under them, the Sames running up the thuste, the boats probably rotten, and themselves ****alone, alone, all, all alone; alone
on w wide, wide sen."
From those days thers still comes
to us the mournful notes of the shanty which the men of the suil- ing ships sung as they manned the pumps with death on every hand. It went like this;
There's a fire in the galley, and it's
running down below.
With
a hey, ho, hey, i hof There's a are in the skipper's pipe.
it's tiine for us to go,
Oh, Bre down below!
If the rotten boats won't hold us
and it's time for us to go
With a hey, ho, hay, i ho! We'll complain to Mister Thomas
when we get him down below. Oh, fire down below!
Then, as now, the British sailor. man-dauntless, resourceful, untir- ing, calm-faced death with a better jusb.
