Story oif a Grimsby Trawler and a Danish Gunboat. A. gunshot rent the air. The cap- tain turn-ed Prom his supervision of the men to lind a l>au;sh gunboat on his port-bow. A little drama, enacted in Icelandic waters, had be- gun, says the London Daily Mail. It was a lishing ves-sol hailing from Grimsby that was thus rudely sur- prised. The skipper is the most po- pular man in the Liucolnshiie port. For a week his crew had worked hard at the nets, and had gathered a rich harvest for their labors, when the gunboat came upon the .scene. Could he be within the limits'? That was the laptains tirst thought. No. But the summons cculd not very well he defied. Id a » moment his mind was iimde up. Ifc must face the music, ilut in his sur- render Captain did not de- spair. He has a stout heart and a brave spirit, and, while the gun- boat was sending a 'deputation" to the Uawler, he held a hurried con- versation with the mate. If the Danish authorities had but known the secret that passed between the two men then! So a Danish oJlicer and three men came aboard, and the captain was formally under arrest. 'ITiey sailed into the ni^arest port, and the Kng- lish captain was t.-ied and lined £100, his cargo of iLsh au'd the ves- Bcl's gt:'ar aI=o to bo couiiscated. But while the magi.stratos were putting their heads to?;x'ther and de- ciding upon this penalty, there was activity aboard the trawler. The mate remembered the captain's con- versation lie was alert and keen- eyed. The captain had been several hours ashore. That moaiit that the court had gone against him. .So the male took the crew into his confi- dence, and they acted promptly. Without any violence or undue scene that trim little trawler sailed away for Oriinsby with the Danish nvn aboard, and safely landed its splendid catch. And the captain'? He got leave to 50 to an adjacent town and seek the assistance of the Tliiglish consul. And at this latter place he boarded an Aberdeen trawler and hid in the coal bunkeis. They liad heard of the escape of his vessel by this ti'Uie Bnvl came in seaich of him. liut the captain made ai: exci 'lent stowaway â€" and he saw his friends in Grimaby again. \VHAT CAN A UOY DO?
