Full Text

Upon a partial examination it was found that the damages sustained by the schooner F.C. LEIGHTON, while ashore on Forty-mile Point, Lake Huron, will amount to between $1,200 and $1,500. About one-half of her keel and over a quarter of her bottom plank on the starboard side will have to come out. As far as known none of her frames have been broken.
