Fletcher stating that he was fearful that
the vessel might be condemned and sold,
nssslie was known to be a very fine ship,
and it was not known what might lie the
disposition Of her. The satisfaction of
Capt, Fletcher may be imagined, when he.

Fletcher expressed his satisfaction as to
the conduct of Capt. Allen of the Keeler.
who undoubtedly did everything in his
power that was possible and compatible
with honesty TO save tile ship, and also 10
save expense to the underwriters.

in order to insure the safety of the city in
this respect, and built powder house

powder house is to afford safety to the
community, thing Which the one in
