Description
Full Text

      A Fish Story. - When the propeller CUYAHOGA struck upon the rocks in the Sault (i.e. St. Mary's) River recently, she sprung a leak, which required the pumps to be put in constant motion. This lasted until the propeller reached Lake Michigan, when the leak suddenly stopped. Upon being placed in dry dock at Chicago, it was discovered that a monster catfish had been drawn into the break, completely shutting out the water. - Milwaukee Sentinel.
