was found in his chest in the name of James

on the ships articles, vet | am inclined To

shipmates heard him say that he had sister
and other relations residing in Hallowell.-
Perhaps you may know or hear of them. The
circumstances of the sad affair, were these =
After midnight it began 10 blow from the 5.
W.. veering TO 5. ). E., with thick rainy
weather; and BY A. NJ, it had increased to
a violent gale with a high, sharp sea. The
fore topsail was clewed down TO close reef, and
split in the operation. Hands were sent aloft
to part, when Just as they were finishing the
work. heard the cry of man overheard. Or
dered the engine to stop and back. then
jumped upon the rail, aud for moment saw
his head. He then disappeared. 1t blew vio-
lently, and the sea was too sharp and high to
get boat out, and if we had, he could not
have been saved. as the first officer reports
having seen him fall-that he struck the rail,
which would have so stunned him as to pre-
vent his rising a second time. The luggage
belonging TO him will be sent to the office of
