About 8:30 p. m., the Clarion having drifted about a mile to the eastward of the lightves- sel, the freighter L. C. Hanna, down- bound with ore, passed the lightvessel and shortly sighted the Clarion in the January, 1910 boarded and, coming round, passed under the Clarion's stern, just brush- ing her and nothing more, so that five of the six men jumped and landed on the Hanna's deck. The sixth man, benumbed with cold and advanced in years, was unable to make the leap in the precarious footing on an ice covered ship, rolling deep, broadside to a raging sea, and as the Hanna passed on, threw up his hands in de- spair. Capt. Anderson resolved to make one more effort and, realizing that time was short, drove his ship in the shortest possible circle and again came under the Clarion's stern, pass- ing within a foot and rescued the last man. After clearing the Clarion, Capt. Anderson, having learned of the get- ting away of the boat with the 12° men, ran in towards the lightvessel to learn if they might have reached her, but the crew of the lightvessel had seen nothing of them, and the Hanna was put upon her course.
