C. A. Madsen and Elder Dorius's deliverance from an ocean storm

While returning to Liverpool, Elder C. A. Madsen and Elder Dorius were caught in a violent storm in the Irish Channel. Due to the storm and an error by the mate at the helm, their ship was being driven toward land and appeared destined to wreck on the rocks. Madsen and Dorius prayed to the Lord, and the wind instantly fell, saving the ship from destruction. A different ship was wrecked in the same location the following day.

Fuller account of this event (in the witness’s own words):

I would like to mention a circumstance that happened at the close of our passage over the Atlantic Ocean. The night before our arrival in Liverpool, we were violently attacked by an ocean storm in the Irish Channel, at the entrance to Liverpool. We found out that on account of the increasing storm connected with an error of the mate at the helm, we were tossed towards land, and about disabled to escape the rocks in any way whatever. Elder Dorius and myself used then our privilege to call upon the Lord, and the piercing wind did fall instantly, and we were thus saved from being wrecked. The same ship was wrecked the day following in the same place, but then it had none of the servants of God on board.
