Petterson after testimony | had been given indicating that his son Carl, in the opinion of shipmates, was buried alive at sea. Carl was a_member of the crew | of the tanker Corning and was buried at sea January 17, 1924, while on the way from Havana to Tampico, after being overcome by leaking gas in the hold where he had been sent to man a pump by Captain Adolf Larson. George Collins, then cook aboard | the Corning, testified that Carl was found unconscious two hours after | he had gone to the hold. Captain Larson and Chief Engineer Maitland, he said, worked over the youth with a pulmotor for two hours and then Captain Larson ordered the sea burial.
