of which 425 were small fishing schooners.
are known to have been destroyed in the
neighborhood of the Gulf of st Lawrence
and the Atlantic shores Of Nova Scotia, Cape
Breton, and Newfoundland. In addition to
this large number, over 80 vessels were de-
stroyed by the same storm in its course be-
fore reaching Nova Scotia, making total of
1,122 vessels destroyed within few days.
