    Moran (sister to drowned boy) was alive to night I'd swear that is she that's singing. Another pilot, however did not heed the supernatural side of it, for as soon as the voice began he stood erect on the deck and danced a jig.
    Next morning, when they came ashore, they heard of Moran's death.
