After the Swan was driven on the shoals off the Gurnet in a northeast gale late vesterday the guards of the Gurnet station brought the §6 men aboard to safety through | mountainous seas, by breeches, buoy and surf boat. It was a task that tried the ten men of the Gurnet crew at the outset | but after they had landed an equal | number from the Swan, the breeches | buoy operatin was left to them and Captain Glynn turned to his surf boat to double the rescue activities. Today, Lieut. Konleczy stood by the | wreck of his ship, which had been l ) driven far up on the beach over | | night, planning a means of salvage. , The Swan was herself engaged in | salvage work when the storm struck her. Oil barge No. 13 of the navy had gone ashore a week ago at the Gur- net, a sandy peninsular that crooks its arm across the southern approach, to Plymouth harbor and the Swan was | sent from Portsmouth to pull her free.
