So when every one of tho Einden's
crew was intent on tho pursuer they
took the body out of the burial bag.
and Jack got into it with pieces of
cork tied under ills shoulders, some
provisions In a rubber bag, a bottle
of water, a knife anil a piece of white
cotton cloth attached to a stick for
signal purposes.
It was decided to ask the CRptaln of
the Eniden for permission to bury
their dead companion, lie was too
busy at the time to give any thought
to their request and granted it with a
nod of the bead. Then the sailors car
ried Jack to the side of the ship and,
standing about him uncovered, slid him
overboard.
J1IL K U1U fM lUliiU U4.m/
Ui the water by tlie Germans, for bo
knew they would not think of stopping
to pick him up. lie was not below the
surface more thnn twenty seconds, but
when be reappeared the cruiser was
going so fast that she whs already
quite a distune? from him. Tho gaze
of most of them was in his direction,
but was fixed on the pursuing ship.
One man caught sight of him, but
Jack simply floated on the surface and
was probably supposed to Iks the corpso
that had been given burial. At any rate,
uo especial attention was paid to him,
and ho was being rapidly left astern.
Jack's main fear was that the Brit
isher, being In a hurry, would fall to
pick him up even If he succeeded in
attracting her attention. lie was di
rectly In her line and with his white
flag would likely succeed In making
himself seen. She was nearly half an
hour l>ehliid the Kmden and losing.
Wlieu a few hundred yards from him
be waved his flag. He knew that he
was seen, for he saw several persons
pointing ut him and evidently discuss
ing him.
But Jack was horrified to see the
ship proceed on her way without stop
ping for him. She bad gone nearly a
mile beyond blm when a gladdening
sight met Ills view. There was a boat
being lowered. There were men In it,
and when in the water and loooened
from the ship tbey pulled toward lilin.
Jack was picked up, and the ship
waited for the return of her boat Her
c ommander was conscious of losing on
the Emden and had decided to save the
man In the water. When Jack was
taken aboard be was plied with ques
tions as to, the German cfulser, but
could only say that sho was the Em
den and had aboard the crews of sev
eral vessels she had sunk.
Jack, was put ashore at a South
American port and determined that
when he committed himself again to
the deep he would go nndar the Amer
ican flag. After waiting some time he
found a berth 011 a United States ves
sel nnd in due time turned up on his
native shore. He says he Is quite con
tent with his experience as a sailor on
the ocean in wartime and has no de
sire for any more of It
