Description
Full Text

The schooner RUSSIAN, grain loaded, is ashore on Colchester Reef, Lake Erie and leaking badly. The tug MAYFLOWER, with hawsers and pumps, has gone to her relief from Detroit, and will doubtless succeed in getting her afloat. Meantime she is in great danger of going to pieces. - Cleveland Herald, 26th.
