Full Text

Advices from the wrecking tug LEVIATHAN state that she has released the schooner ORKNEY LASS in good shape from Chamber's Island, where she was beached last fall, and has also found and pulled the steambarge BARNHAM off Horseshoe Reef. The tug has abandoned the schooner E. C. L., ashore on Sister Bay, as it was found impossible to free her from water.
