pcller Grand Isle, Capt. Shepardson, of the
Northern Transportation Line, en- route
from Whitehall to this port, with a large
tow consisting of ten barges, met just north
of Westport the little steamer Water Lily,
having in tow the new and large steam
drcdgc owned by Luther Whitney of Reese
vile The sea was SO heavy that the Lily
could not handle the drcdgc, so the Grand
Isle added both to her tow. When about
half way between Westport and the Ver-
mont shore the dredge broke loose, and the
Lily then went after her. The night was
very dark and the force of the wind terri
lic, hut the Lily soon discovered the dredge,
and they managed to work over to Essex
and secure a harbor. Tho Grand Isle had
great difficulty in bringing her tow into
port. but she did so without damage. The
gale was one of the worst experienced OF
