We had Just picked up the Lizard Light- house one night In the war and wo was bowling up the clianiiel just like a lame duck after a buth lu a brewery. Up came ono of them naval destroyer boats.

"Tlinn 'e was off like a shot, and his wake from the propellers stopped us dead all standing. Weil, the old Awlova kept coughing away, and when the flood made we began to make headway.

To nmko it more homelike they brought a couple of fel- las to swear In l-:nglish, but I could give 'em both points lu that. It wasn't long before they found out about the scaboot, and every time a hand camo up to free the boot, I Jabbed with me sheaf knife. All this tlnio we wa.s hustling along about eighteen knots and Ginger was out of sight. Clo:;o beside me was a periscope which was homo two blocks, so I spared a few precious seconds to slip me sock over It. It wasn't long before they was swearing In several other languages. Nearly taken unawares I was. A long arm shot out and nearly grabbed me whl.skers as I ducked. Another arm shot out with a waving automatic pistol, blazing away like a maxim gun; but I lost my knife. After push- ing me gun Inside the conning towor I lot 'em 'avo four quick shots which stopped the bad language. "Open this blankety blank conning towor!" sez I as pollto as I could, "or I'll blow yer all to blazes. Don't watt till I lose my ti.'inpor," 1 tells them.

Wo had our flags flying and there was no less than three red ensigns flying over the submarine. I was glad to see that 'e 'ad some sense and gave the credit to the Merchant Service and not the Navy. "This doesn't look like tho 'Umber," sez I. "Perhaps It's been changed since you last saw It," 'e tolls me. "Then they've been mighty quick," was the reply. "I only left there the night afore last." "Don't you know Goole?" 'e asks me. "It's on tho way to the Notting- ham Docks." Just then we slips alongside a quay. Tho bands wero playing and whistles blowing, and I was wondering 'ow they found out ashore that I'd cap- tured a German submarine. "Hurry up, McGinty!" sez the sub- marine Captain. "I've got something 1 here for you," and then 'e 'ands me a pleco of piiper. "Read it," sei e, 1 "read it." So I did, and this Is what It said: "This la to certify that Albert George McGinty, sometime A.B. and Bosun In tho Hriti.sh Merchant Ser- vice, did capture single handed on the high seas tho German Uuter.srcl)oot No. 147, on tlio afternoon of Septem- ber 23rd.
