Description
Full Text

On Saturday morning last, while H. B. M. schooners TECUMSEH and NEWASH, were doubling Point Abino, (12 miles above Fort Erie), a violent squall arose and carried away the TECUMSEH's bowsprit, and both masts by the board; and strange to relate, though many persons were on board, not a soul was injured.
