...passengers off." But how? Swooping lifeboats from the rescue vessels dared come little closer than a hundred yards amid the crazy welter of water; the Flying Enterprise boats were disabled or waterlogged. In matter-of-fact tones, Carlsen ordered that all must jump. A brave woman passenger, Mrs. Elsa Muller, went first, was picked up by a boat from the Southland. After that, with lifebelts strapped tight, more leaped or were pushed into the sea. A crewman jumped with each passenger...

Without a second's pause Muller smashed him between the ears with the pipe. The lion staggered, sat back on his hind legs...

Then Sultan rose and advanced. Muller stopped, and stared fixedly at the big cat. Sultan halted. Muller waited for a few more seconds. Then he coolly pulled the woman's body out of the arena, slammed the door, and locked it tight. May Schafer's neck was broken, and she was dead.
