Stranded castaways endure harrowing voyage on lifeboat

A raft carrying nineteen aboard a wrecked vessel drifted after Sunday departure. Sixteen remained aboard as food dwindled from two apples to one divided into sixteen parts. One died from exhaustion, two more perished next morning. A passenger drank sea water and leaped overboard as others vanished into the sea. A steamer passed within fifty yards but failed to aid. Next morning twelve survivors faced grim fate.
