HEROIC RESCUE BY TWO WOMEN.

An Incident of the January

Dse incident at least that bids fair to be memorable has been bequeathed by the starm of wind which visited the west coast Df England during the last week of J»o ---uary. The story concerns two Welsh women who went into the sea to save sumc drowning men, The narrative occupied only a few lines when first told, thus -xem plifyiog the truth of Herman Melville's words: "But in the events thus merely initialised in tho catalogue of passiug occur rences, and but glanced at by tho readers of news who are more taken up with paragraphs of fuller flavour, what a world of life and death, what a world of humanity and its woes, lies shrunk in a tbrce-wonied sentence I" Vet some of these "three-worded Sentences" oc casionally moiit expansion, because they arc full of nob'e teaching, of beautiful aud devoted heroism, and examples to the world of self-denial and touching sacrifice, Such an incident is that of the wrecK of a barque, somewhere abreast of Swansea Bay the diowning of most of the lifeboat-men who went to the succour of the crew, and the rescue of two men by a couple of stout-hearted, courageous women, A high sea was running, and a heavy gale of wind was blowing, when, between nine and ten o'clock ono Saturday morning last January, a barque, apparently not under control, was seen driving up Channel, bat with a strong drift in th« direction of somo rocks situated a short distance to the westward of tbe Mumbles Head. When close to these rocks Bho let go her anchor, and almost immediately afterwards struck; whereupon a tug-boat in her neighbourhood sounded her whistle aa a signal for tbe lifoboat. A crew of thirteen men promptly collected, jumped into tbe lifeboat, and made for the barque. Among the men who thus hazirded their lives without reference to anything out side tbe pure humanity of tbeir mission since all the reviaid th*y were likely to re ceive fror their perilous errand was a sum of ten shillings per man—were a father and four sous, and herein lies not a little of the pathos of this moving story, 'i he father, Jenkin Jenkins, was tbe coxswain of the boat, and one of his sons second coxswain. Five of the other men were volunUers. Tbe lifeboat was headed to windward ot tho wreck, and presently, after a furious tussle and tosting—for tho waters in which the Mumbles itand aro f»r enough to the westward te feel much of the full strength and fury of the Atlantic surges as they roll up into tho British Channel - the boat reached tbe bearings she had made for, let go her anchor, and veered but cable so as to drop down on the wreck. The barque wins fast going to pieces 5 the seas were boiling over her decks; rending and tearing kcr strong fastenings with every furious blow ; and the poor fellows aboard i her, holding on for their lives, waited with desperate anxiety f»r the lifeboat to come alongside. The boatmen threw a grappling iron on board, and succeeded in hauling a couple of the crew into the boat. A third man was being rescued in this manner, when a sea of unusual height and powei Ktruck the boat, parked her cable; and threw the whole of her occupants intc tho water. The same sea rolled over th« barque, and such was its fury that Jenkins, the coxiwain, though struggling foi life, overboard, could yet take note anc afterwards remember and relate that it ton all three masts out ot tbe doomed craft ai a man might pluck \ip so many stalks 0! wheat by tho roots. Tho boat righted, and the coxswau managed to roll into her, and whsn then seized hold of his son, William Jenkins and a man natscd M&cnamara, getting then out of the water. But just then anothei sea took the lifeboat and hurled her agains the wreck, knockiag in a part of her side The coxswai*,, who relates ihe story, says "One of my sous, John, said to me, 'It ii all over with us, fathsrl' I replied, '1 believe it is ; the cc» will settle us now. John aleo said, "My head is cut open.' J told him mine was too, The bottom of tha lifeboat was like a slaughter' house, covered, with blood." Once more the ooat was capsized, and the wounded men were flung into the raging water. Tbecox swain contrived to grasp the lifeline at: ached to tho side of the boat, aud held ou while the boat floated hipi towards the rocks. After a little time, thinking he saw hi* chano-, hie struck out »or the shore, which he gaintd, landing half dead on the second island. Ho looted towards the water, and saw a man struggling amid tbe boiling wash of tho surf. Three soldieis stood by, and ho implored tham to help the man; but observing that th»y gave nc assistance be cried "to them, "Save the men, for shame 1 Don't let the men drown before your eyes." But wbal tho soldiers had no hiart to at' tempt two bravo women rushed forward eagerly to perform. They were th« daughters of Mr Ace, the lighthouse keeper—one named Magglo Ace, and the other her married sister, Mrs Wright, " Come back, come back I You'll lose your lives 1" shouted Ace to them, as thoj ran to tho water to help the drowning men. "I'll lose my life before I'll let those men drown," was Maggie's answer j and tearing off their shawls the women knitted them together, and wading into the furidSs suri until tho swell of the surges sometimes roso tc the height of their armpit", and one hold ing bravely to the other, to support them selves against the tearing recoil of the sweeping water, they threw the end 0] their shawls towards the outstretched arms of the perishing men, and by these meani dragged them both on to the rocks. Thai were rescued two of tho lifebofltsraan, William Roascr and John Thomas. *' Thoj almost went out of their depth," says th< coxswaia who lay watching them, exhausted by his own recent terrible struggles, " anc were both in the water up to their armpits, They acted with great bravery. The met who wore thus saved were about three yard! from the shore. The soldiers did thnro something into tho water resembling a clothes-line, but they did not go neai enough to allow the line to reach the men, It really seems an incredible thing thai men—let their calling bo what it may owning the name of itnglishmen could stand and look on at two women doing that which their strength as men would fai more easily have enabled them to effect, never offering to assist the brave girls, tc support them while they stood swept and beaten by the rushing waters, fired witii the magnificent resolution to save the un fortunate fellows, or perish in the attempt. Those soldiers make but a humiliating foil for tbo brilliancy of this act oi woman's heroism, which nevertheless shines forth the more luminously. In its way the behaviour of Maggie Aco and Mr« Wright entitlos them to a place in the sailor's love and veneration, side by side with that occupied by Grace Darling. The admiration excited by theirconduct through out the principality, and to be felt, let us hope, wherever the story is known, is one of the least of the tributes that could be paid to these simple-hearted, courageous women. Yet though the part tbey played in this wild tragedy ends with their noble Mt of rescue, deep pathos and suffering linger in what remains to be told; 'The coxswain had watched his son John clinging to the lifeboat as long as he could, at last the young man let go and waS floated by the seas towards his father. He cimo close, but the recoil .of the breakers washed him away again. Once he was hove forward by another sea, and tho old man, having crept down to the water as cloae a-s he oould go, managed to catch him by the collar and drag him clear. He bent down, and said, " Johnny, are you alive 2" [ There was no answer, The old man put bis hand upon his child's face, and felt that it was stone cold, "My boy,"he cried, "it is too late ! My poor Johnny's dead ;" and we read that as the bereaved father told this part of his story he broke down and wept bitterly. Meanwhile the survivors of the lifeboat's crew scram bled on to the shore as best they could, and lay down in their exhaustion upon the rock, Two of the coxswain's sons were among the drowned, and be pas sionately exclaimed that had he been at the lighthouse where the soldiers were he could nave saved them. As an illustration of the hardships endured by the brave fellows who man the lifeboats, the ad° ventures of the two other sons of the coxs wain ore worthy of notice. When the boat capsized these two men swam to the Mixeu Sands, thinking some tug would come to their rescue. Finding that they were likely to be left to perish, they threw themselves into the water, and by a miracle, were washed up into a place called Bob's Cave. One of them arriving I first, perceived somebody near him in the 1 water; he asked who it wbb, and was an swered, *' George, your brother; save me !" Ho caught hold of aud dragged him in, and they wore in that cave for two hoars before
