The Daily Dispatch: March 25, 1861., [Electronic resource], Marrying Cousins. (search)
Marine. --The men who go down to the sea in ships report the weather as very bad on last Wednesday and Thursday outside the Capes. The schr. Manchester, (now in port,) while off Cape Hatteras, at the time mentioned carried away her main boom, mainsail, stove monkey rail, and sustained other injuries. The bark Abigail, it is feared, has met with some accident, having been expected in for more than a week past, and not arriving. Landsmen who experience the force of the wind on terra firma can form but a faint conception of its power when created on the bosom of the "mighty deep." The schr. Danville, Chester master, of Richmond, Va., arrived in New York on Saturday, 7 days from this port, with flour and tobacco consigned to C. H. Pierson & Co. Her captain reports that on the 18th inst. while off the capes of Delaware, in a heavy gale from N. E., a seaman called Louis, of Bremen, fell from the bowsprit overboard, and was drowned.
