MATE'S STORY

HEARD THEY WERE OUT FOR PEARLS

THE exploits of the Girl Pat, the alleged marooning of the engineer at Dover, and the sailing of the vessel to Africa and across to South America without charts and with the aid only of an atlas, were all described at Bow Street, when George Orsborne (the skipper) and his brother James appeared on remand charged with stealing the vessel.

A surprise disclosure made by counsel was that when the vessel left Grimsby James Orsborne had not signed on as one of the crew, and that he was in reality a stowaway.

Mr. Fulton (prosecuting) said that in March George Orsborne was employed by the Marstrand Fishing Company to take a boat called Gipsy Love to the fishing grounds. He signed on a crew consisting of himself as master, a man named Stone, another man, named "Harris and a man called Stevens,

The Gipsy Love sailed with James Oraborne as a stowaway. The vessel's engines were found defective and the Gipsy Love put back to, Grimsby. where I was arranged that Georges Oraburne should transfer his crew to the Girl Pat and gu to fish near Grimsby.

A man numied Jefferson was on the Girl Pat as engineer, and he sailed. with them. Jamas Orsborne tsak course!) was also a stowaway, on that boat.
