trawlers v.lio in the course of their
passage have witnessed a rescue or
the transfer of a sick person from a
nearby ship have had an expensive
they vviil not soon, if ever, forgt t.
Recently upon the arrival of the
steamship "President Garfield” cjf the
United States Lines came a story of a
1 seaman whose life had been saved by
wireless, -*
The story of the life-waving is tykl
i in the trite hut comprehensive rep t
of Captain II. L. Look of the steam
ship "President Garfield.” The repr.t
succinctly tell* of the treatment >v
wireless of a seaman in the throes )f
pneumonia, hi* eventual transfer at
sea and a course of treatment aboa 1
the liner that resulted in his stepping
ashore in New York a well man.
The "President Garfield” was *>>
route to Europe when the stirring in
cident occurred. Shortly before mid
night the wireless operator respond, d
to a call for aid. The message can e
from the [freight steamship “West
Norrar.us, bound from Mobile, A'u.,
to Rotter Jam, Holland, and stated tl at
a member of the engine room force
was seriously ill and in need of im
mediate medical attention. The “West
Norranus" gave her position which
showed that she was almost 100 m; es
distant from the “President Garfield.”
C aptain Look, of the “President
Garfield,” summoned the ship’s sur
geon, and asked him to do what he
could by radio in the matter of pre
scribing for the patient The surge in
called for a description of the ma i’s
illness and from the reply he diag
nosed the case als one of pneumonia
in a most advanced stage. His diag
nosis completed, the surgeon pno
scribed emergency treatment.
lhcre was a rapid interchange of
™<V,«agcs l,etwcen ^ “President Gar
field and iherfreighter and then came
one win h,stated that the supply of
drugs on the small vessel was very
limited a J that it was impossible to
follow out instructions. It was stated
that the patient was sinking rapidly
u/i! * 'V ty* Vas despaired of.
when thc information was conveyed
to Captain Look he immediate!;, gave
orders that the course if the "Presi
dent Garfield'’ be changed that they
might come up with the freighter and
render aid.
“Full speed ahead-’ was the order
sent from the bridge of the “President
Garfield” to the engine room below
and through the night raced the
United State* Liner on her errand of
mercy. While the President Garfield
speeded towards the freighter the
ship’s surgeon remained in the wire
less room giving the necessary direc
tions for the treatment of the sick
man. The passengers on the “Presi
dent Garfield” did not know until
morning that their vessel was being
taken out of her course on a matter
<|f life and death but once having the
knowledge they stood by the rat!,
scanning the sea for a first view of
the freighter over which which the
death angel fluttered.
About mid-afternoon the “West
Nqrranus” came into view and the
“President Garfield" drew up as close
as possible. Considerable of at sea
was running when a life-boat was
lowered away from the United States
Liner.
When the "President Garfield’*1*
surgeon had boarded the “West Mor
ranus” he found the seaman, John \V.
Miller, who hails from New Orleans,
La;, In a pecarious condition. He
quickly determined that the patient
be removed to the "President Gar
field." Miller was lashed to a sea
stretcher and lowered over the side
to the bobbing life-boat below. The
transfer to the "President Garfield"
was speedily accomplished while the
passenger at the rail of the liner
watched in silence.
During the remainder of the trip to
London the pneumonia patient was
watched day and night bv the surgeon
and then came a turn /or the better
and the surgeon announced to the pas
sengers that the man would live. Mil
ler was kept in the ship's hospital dur
ing the “President Garfield’s” stay in
London and during the trip bark to
New York his restoration to health
was fully ace^mpliihpi
