CAPT. VON MULLER'S GALLANTRY.

Reading edition

Another tribute to the gallantry of Capt. Von Muller of the German cruiser Emden is contained in a letter received by a Glasgow woman from her son, a member of the crew of the steamship Kabinga. The letter says:

"The Emden captured the Kabinga in the Bay of Bengal, but when Capt. Von Muller learned that our skipper's wife and children were aboard he presented the ship to the lady, remarking to the skipper, 'You can inform your owners that as far as they are concerned the Kabinga has been seized and sunk.'"
