Maritime History of the Great Lakes

Cornwell (Schooner), 3 Nov 1865

Description
Full Text

The schr. CORNWELL, which was wrecked a few days since at East Sister, with a cargo of corn, has been sold as she now lies to Capt. S.P. Grummond, who has already rescued nearly all her effects that were of any value, and brought them to this port. The price paid we did not learn. An effort is yet to be made the first favorable opportunity to raise the hull, as she is reported , up to the present time, not badly broken. The vicinity where this vessel met her fate is a dangerous one during thick weather, and should be provided with a good and sufficient light.
