Immense waves came tumbling towards the ship, and rushed on deck over the stem, bows, and bulwarks. The water was boiling hot, and the crew were driven to take refuge in the rigging, where they remained for five hours. .During this time great blasts of hot sulphurous gas escaped from the boiling ocean, and almost suffocated the crew. Hie scalding water melted the pitch in the deck seams, and the rolling of the vessel was so great that the maintopmast crosstree was pitched into the sea, and the men momentarily expected the masts to go over the side. The phenomena disappeared at the end of eight hours, but most of the crew were ill for several days after.
