Description
Full Text

Captain Peter Jordan and John Brann have been very successful in raising the sunken tug Truscott from the bottom at Mud Bay, and she now lies high and dry on the beach. Nels Nelson, a ship carpenter came up from Sturgeon Bay to make repairs, which are quite extensive, and it will be some time before she is in ship-shape again. Amidships on the port side part of her planking is entirely gone, and all the oakum is out of her seams.
