Through his counsel. Colonel

why his ease was so abnormal,
why he had no| been I rente 1 as
any other officer would b.? treat

more careful manner than is pos

Hut in Colonel Mitchell s case all
l ho rules were disregarded. The
lateat court niartial rub's, bv the
way. were promulgated by presi
dent Woodrow Wilson.
Despite Ihe admitted irrc^ulari
fles. the court decided to ? on to

As to this conviction there is
much speculation in and about the
court room. There are ten mem

morning In commenting upon
his trip. Captain B. H. Davis, of
the flattie Creef. said the gule
was the heaviest In the six years
he has been on the Elisabeth Ci
ty- Wnnehese run.
??We had ten passengers
aboard." he commented, "and they
all got seasick. One was a
preacher, and we called him the
Jonah of the crowd. They were
! scared nearly to death. though
'really there wasn't any danger.
'The boat is tight and seaworthy
It was the heaviest wind I have
ever crossed the Sound in.
"It took us four hours and fif
teen minutes on tho run between
Caroon's l*olnt and Wade's Point,
which we generally make in two
hours. It was blowing a gale, all
right." The two points designat
ed are on the south and north
hides of Albemarle Sound, respec
tively. and the run to which the
.captain referred is the stretch
across the open sound, where flit
wind had dearest sweep.
Despite the lull Saturday morn

Sags Head, popular summer fl
sort. was buffeted about consider
ably. and arrived here two hours
and 20 minutes late. Captain
Martin Johnson, skipper of the
Trenlon and one of the ^ best
known ship masters In the Sound
country, ascribed the delay large
ly to the low tide resulting from
the gale.
The extent of damage to Hsh
, 11 ft s could not be ascertained even
? approximately toduy. through the
fact that the fishermen had been
unable to check up their losses.
II was predicted, however, that a
survey of the fishing grounds
would disclose havoc running into
' many thousands of dollars.
