The steamer Lusitania, homewardbound, encountered the brigantine Mayflower in a sinking condition.
The first officer, Alexander, with a volunteer crew, launched the lifeboat, but found it impossible to reach the sinking vessel. They threw a line and belts to the crew of the Mayflower, and by these means rescued them through the raging sea.
