The Wharf Company's dredge boat. now
working alongside the channel in front 0s
the brick wharf. day or two ago struck
the wreck of an old vessel which was i'm.
bedded in the sand and mud far below this
water.
After removing several pieces of the
wreck and sundry articles of no Importance.
large iron gun, Of old English pattern.
was brought up from depth of eighteen
feet underneath the sand. The gun is =
twensy,fo FOUNDER, and appears to be
charged. The question ia, to what vessel
did 1t belong, and under what circuuo
stances was she lost?
The recovery of the two guns now in poes
session OF the Galveston Artillery, from the
wreck OF the schooner Tom Toby, gave rise
to an interesting controversy q year or tvs
ago. The ancient gun which has inst BEEN
recovered may possess an even more inteso
esting history.
The rust and sand will BE- removed qronN
the gun, and possibly an inscription may
be found which will give some clue to ito
identity; but. perhaps, some Of our old citi-
zens can solve the problem without refer
ence to the piece itself. An old residenter,
some month or two ago, spoke of vessel
with armament aboard having been sunk 90
or near the old wharf below Kuhn's, but
cumstances; possibly the location was
wrong, and the present location Of the
brick wharf was the place, and not the old
Hutchings wharf.
The recovered gun has been rendered to
the Historical Society of Galveston, and the
gift will, no doubt, be accepted. In the
meantime any Of our old citizens who cayo
throw hight On the subject are respectfully
invited to do sO.-Galreston Mercury.
