Platina (Schooner), aground, 13 Nov 1848

The schooner PLATINA, of Detroit, run ashore on Monday last, near the mouth of the Saugeen river, on the Canada coast of Lake Huron. It was a westerly wind, and as the vessel had only a few barrels of flour on board, she was too light to withstand the storm, the crew are all safe, and we understand the schooner has sustained comparatively little damage.
