Description
Full Text

The propeller RACINE passed down on Thursday night. On reaching Mammy Juda Island, below this, ran hard aground. The steamer MORNING STAR yesterday morning, immediately after her arrival from Cleveland, went to her relief, and was thus engaged nearly the entire day, in lighting and otherwise endeavoring to get her afloat, which she accomplished during the latter part of the day. The only thing resulting from the casualty was one day and nights detention, having sustained no damage. - Detroit Free Press
