and five women had been freely indulging in intoxicating
liquors throughout the whole of the night, from Saturday

in a state of intoxication, for the purpose of spending the
day. When they had got about half-a-mile from land,
and near the Martello Tower, a quarrel originated between
two of the party, a struggle ensued, when the others in-
terfered. No sooner had they risen from their seats than

the third-class passengers a seaman attracted some atten-
