A crew of 7 men, including Chief Officer Hardie and Third Officer Porter were lowered into a lifeboat and headed to the vessel. Upon arriving within hailing range, they were told the ship was the British schooner ''John Martin'', which also carried the rescued crew of another schooner wrecked off Labrador. The sinking ''John Martin'' was abandoned by its complement of 43, including 23 women and children. Chief Officer Hardie was knocked overboard while helping passengers into ''Hungarian''. He could not swim, but hauled himself aboard by a rope and survived the ordeal. ''Hungarian'' headed for St. John's and arrived on the morning of the November 10. Each member of ''Hungarian''s crew who had helped in the lifeboat was given a party by the passengers of the trip, and also received a silver cup for their heroism.
