day. Capt. Rees has remained here since
the burning of the Exporter, and in that time
has made many trips down the river in
search of the body of his sister, Mrs. Mus
grove, who was lost by that disaster. That
his efforts in that direction have failed we
truly regret. In the persistence he has dis
played in this matter he has evinced in a
remarkable manner the strong and devoted
affection that can dwell within mans breast,
and he bears with him to his home the sympa-
thies and admiration of the people of this
whole section.
