Into the city room of the New York Leader hurried Mr. Whiggen, the telegraph editor. In his hand was a slip of paper, containing a few typewritten words. Mr. Whiggen laid it on the desk of Bruce Emberg, the city editor. "Just came in over our special wire," said Mr. Whiggen. "Looks as if it might be a bad wreck. That's a dangerous coast.
Whiggen handed him: "BULLETIN. S.S. Olivia ashore off Seven Mile Beach, on sand bar. Big steerage list, some cabin passengers fruit cargo. Ship badly listed, but may get off at high tide. If not, liable to break up in storm. Passengers safe yet. There followed a brief description of the vessel, compiled from the maritime register, giving her tonnage, size, and when built. "Um," remarked Mr.
Whiggen may want it. Hustle now, Larry, and do your best."

Larry went down the long corridor, stopping in the telegraph room to leave the message which was destined to be responsible for his part in a series of strange events.
