A Story of the Last
War With England
Br T. TOWNSEND SMITH
We had good luck Id meeting British
merchantmen nud bad secured Moaie
prizes, a few of which we carried lato
port, and some wo let go, they uot be
ing of mucn value. We were sailing
In longitude west from Greenwich 62
degrees and 40 minutes, latitude 35 de
grees 15 minutes, when tn the direc
tion of the Bermudas, to tke windward
of us, appeared on the horizon a sail.
She had a good breexe, wbllo we were
nearly becalmed. She made straight
for us and cauio up with us, breaking
the British flag. She was altogether
too strong for us, and after a short
fight we surrendered.
1 wus put down between decks with
the others, who. being tired with sev
eral days' constant activity ending
with a light, were all very soon asleep.
Somehow 1 couldn't sleep and sat
watching our guards, who wore as
fngged as we. One by one they drop
lied asleep. There wasn't much use of
their keeping awake, for we couldn't
run away, and it would have been mad
ness for us to attempt to capture the
But when I saw the last man dozing
on a coll of rope wltb bis cutlass across
his lap I concluded to take a walk.
1 didn't expect to get very far, but I
found that all hands, having been on
duty for several days without sleep,
had succumbed, and 1 didn't see a per
son awake. Forward I fouud the bod
ies of several men who bad beeu killed
durlug the light, laid out for burial?
that is, I saw the sucks In which they
were Inclosed. The idea occurred to
me that If we were near '?lough to
land to swim ashore I might escape by
tnkltig a oody out of one of the sacks,
getting In myself and being slid over
board. 1 knew we were headed for
the Bermudas and 1 might somehow
get 10 III MI.
1 would need a knife, but bud none,
and while I was malting up my mind
to take tbc risk 1 thought 1 would look
around for oue. A sailor who was
sleeping like a log bad one In his belt,
and, though I risked his killing mo If
be awakened wblle relieving him of It,
I took the chance and succeeded. I
don't believe he would bnvo opened his
eyes If I had kicked him.
Having the knlfo gave me nerve, nnd
I resolved to make a break for liberty.
The great difficulty was getting a body
out of a sack and tossing it overboard.
There was un advantage for me in that
tbe sailors, not relishing sleeping near
the dead men. gave them a wide berth.
I was some time at tbc job. but Anally
I had a bag ready and crawled in. I
couldn't lace the opening from the In
side and wondered wbut this might
lead to.
1 lay perfectly still till morning, when
I fancied by sounds near me and words
thut were spoken that tbe burial was
ubout to take place. I beard a man
say, "Hero's a sack not closed," und
felt him closiug It. Then be tied a
cord about my ankles, and after tbat
a chaplain read the burial service.
That euded, I beard something slide on
a board, and presently I was taken up
and was sliding rapidly, plunging feet
foremost into cold water.
It seemed that I bad gono down a
hundred yards before I succeeded In
cutting open tbc bag nnd two hundred
more before I cut the rope that bound
my ankles to the sinking shot. When
free I commenced to rise, slowly at
first, but soon quite rapidly. My breath
was gone when I reached tbc surface,
but I knew tbat if I sank again 1
would take in water, so I exerted my
self and got a few breaths. I didn't
sink again and pretty soon ivas able
to look ubout me.
There was tbe ship not llfty yards
from me and nusther body Just shoot
ing over tbe side. Fortunately I was
astern, and those engaged at the bur
ial work did not see me. I swam for
tbe rudder nnd as there was but little
breeze succeeded in reaching It and
banging on to tbc chains.
There wasn't allien son on or i
would soon have been washed from
my hold. I had had nothing to eat
since the morning before and hadn't
much strength, but during the morn
ing the cook threw some refuse from
the galley, and I was enabled to gath
er gome pieces of bread and a few bits
of meat That helped me considerably.
About noon 1 sow land on the port
quarter aud knew we were approach
ing the Bermudas. Would I be able to
leave the rudder and appear as some
one else than a Yankee tar? All I
could do was to wait for an opportuni
ty. Once or twice we approached so
near the lan 1 that 1 was tempted to
let go and swim for It, but feared 1
would be seen from the ship.
Then we ran Into the harbor, and a
man tlsbing In a small boat was for a
few minutes within n hundred feet of
me. Before ho saw mo I dived nnd
came up directly before him. He wus
too astonished to say anything for u
few moments, then helped me luto his
1 told lilm that I was one of the
crew of the ship that had passed. My
clothes didn't give me away, for there
were very few clothes left on me, and
they were of a most ordinary charac
ter. I won the man's sympathy by
telling him I had been flogged nearly
to death for some slight delinquency,
nnd he took me ashore to bis house,
where he kept me for several weeks,
at the end of which tlmo I found a
small vessel leaving for Charleston
and soon after landed at that port
