- Full Text
Owen Sound, May 3. - Word has just been received from up the peninsula that the schooner ARIEL, owned by Capt. Findlay McPherson, of Southampton, is ashore on Baptist Island, near Capt Hurd. The tug GEORGE DOUGLAS went to her assistance, but could do nothing on account of a heavy sea. She is a total wreck; no insurance.
