His Experience.
_____
Mr. Rosea T. WlndUy. son of Mrs
W. B. Wlndley.of this city, now a
efildent of Wilmington, N. C., who
was one of the passengers on the
Merchants nad Miners steamship Ontario,
burned off the coast of Masen*
chusetts a few days ago,, proved to
De one of the heroes on bo^rd ship
according to the Botson dally papers.
In the Boston Daily Globe of April 9
appears on the front page a three
column cut ot iIr Windfey and Miss
Mabel Perkins, whose attractive hat
and other valuables Mr. Wlndley succeeded
in aaving from the burning
ship. In the Boston Journal of the
same date appears a one column cut
of Mr. Wlndley; Mr. Windley gave
the following account of his experience
to the Journal which will no
doubt prove of Interest to his friends ? ^
in Washington. He says; "Some
one burst in the dodv to my state
room shortly after 1:30 In the morning.
The crash awoke me and 1
leaped from the berth, only to find
the room filled with choking smoke.
Someone yelled "Get up. for God's
sake." The ship is afire and sinking."
Throwing on a pair of trousers
and my overcoat, I groped my wnt to
the upper detfk. Here I found Mr.
and~Mrs. C. E. Perkins of Madbury.
N. H., together wUh their daughter
with whom I had become acquainted
with on the trip. Quite a knot of
us huddled here for more than an
hour and a half until the ship was
beached. We were all shivering by *
reason of our scanty, attiro and 1 lent %
Misa Perkins my overcoat. When
the life savers finally arrived Miss
Perkins expressed a desire for the
> ? ?? WO"'" ""U O JWUI1R #
sailor at the risk of Btlfling to death,
made his way to the room and shoved
everything in reach In the pillowslips.
He came hack, however minus
Miss Perkins' Easter hat. Although
she begged me not to do so, the hat*,
was such a beauty that 1 could nor
think of letting it perish, and so I
rescued it."
Mr. Windlcy is expected to be in
Washington next Tuesday on his way
back to Wilmington, N. C.
