Full Text

Detroit.---The International Wrecking & Transportation Co. has attached the schooner STARLING in the United States district court for $2,250. It is claimed in the libel that in 1886 the schooner sunk in Sarnia Bay and was raised by the libelant company. That subsequently she waterlogged at Walkerville, was raised and pumped out, and again sprung a leak at Perry Harbor and was towed to St. Catharines. Alex McVittie and Jas.W. Millen appraised her at $2,250; a bond has been given to certify a decree for that amount and the schooner reeased.
