August (search for this): article 2
and burning vessels marked our course. Towards night, Mr. Tynaus, our chief engineer, reported the coal fast going, and in order to get a fresh supply to continue our operations among the fishermen, Captain Wood turned for Halifax, and at dark we were dashing off thirteen knots an hour towards Cape Sable. Wednesday, 17th.--At 6 o'clock, when I woke were on Brown's bank, about forty miles from the cape. It was a dull, smoky day, the sea calm and the air cool. Although in the middle of August, an overcoat was not uncomfortable. Saw several fishermen in the distance, but did not turn from our course to pick them up. One coming in our way, was captured — the fishing schooner North America, of New London, Connecticut. David Mainwaring, master. We got some fresh fish — halibut weighing sixty to seventy pounds, some ice, and a few provisions, then scuttled the vessel. At 9, captured brig Neva, of East Machias, Maine, from Lyngan bay, C. B., to New York with a cargo of coals.
