Boy Survives Hurricane at Sea

In the awful hurricane which passed over Jamaica several weeks ago, there was a little boy by the name of Willie G., a colored lad, blown away on a coconut-palm. He was twenty hours at sea. When picked up he was asleep. He explained that he ensconced himself in the crotch of the tree, ate the only coconut on the tree, said his prayers, and resolved to wait; and when he came to, he was on the Foxton Hall Steamer. If he is a sincere Christian, he certainly will believe that the Lord heard his prayer.
