Description
Full Text

BRIG E.W. CROSS. - This vessel, which capsized near this city, arrived Sunday morning from Grand River, in tow of the propeller MARY STEWART, with 400 cords of wood and 70M feet of lumber. She is a hard looking craft, with only one mast, and minus a perfect rigging. Her owners intend leaving her in this condition until navigation closes; in the meantime she will be used as a lumber vessel, being towed to and from this port. - Chicago Tribune.
