The " Clinton " also was encountered, 57 CAP'N CHADWICK abandoned by her crew. Her deck had been lifted, and her skipper, John White, and one of his men had been swept overboard and lost. He was a genial soul. How well do I remember him on the eve of his departure, and others who came not back ! They made a merry group about the door of Samuel Sparhawk's shop, where they were getting their supplies. My father's brother Charles was one of these. He was skipper of the " Senator, " one of the elev...en vessels that were lost. The Provincetown vessel which my father spoke on the morning after the storm brought home the news of his safety, and that of some others ; but we were long in doubt as to the limits of the disaster. My 53 CAP'N CHADWICK mother was hardly less anxious than she would have been if the " Hero " had not been spoken. My uncle George, her brother, haunted the Old North steeple and the headlands of the town, straining his eyes to make out each approaching vessel, if haply she might be one of the sur- vivors of the storm.
