Survivors Tell of Loss of Equinox and Mendota Vessels
Chicago reports detail the wrecks of the propellers Equinox and Mendota with accounts from rescued crew. Charles Burns, wheelsman aboard Equinox, describes immersion, lifeboat failures, and his solo fight to reach a pilot-house deck amid a gale. The Mendota mutiny tale follows Captain Scott, Williams leading convicts, and a brutal struggle. Burns survives aboard the mutinous ship until rescue by a frigate, aiding trials of eighteen condemned mutineers in Sydney.
