The following day another gale raged with greater fury, and seas threatened at times to engulf her. The ship laboured violently, pitching and straining in a most alarming manner. One big sea smashed the forward bridge, and another damaged the side-lights. Several members of the crew had narrow escapes, but, with the exception of tho ship’s carpenter, who wits temporarily disabled, they were all able to continue their duties. The gale lasted four days.
