wharf with u cargo of ice, states that on tho
18th Of this month, while out several days from
Kennobec, tho steward, named Osborne Hal.
lett, was los; overheard. The particulars as TO
how the man met his fate are not known. The
first mate, who was vt tho wheel mt the time,
claims that he heard voice shout Jim Jim !"
While ut the same instant sudden heavy swell
struck the ship. No immediate action was,
however, taken, as the mate was too uncertain
rs to the genuineness of the supposed voice.
But In little over an hour tho stewards alb.
snnce was discovered, and thorough search Of
the vessel failed to bring forth the missing man.
1t was too late to about.ship and scour the sea
and, as the vessel was over forty.fvc miles from
land, the unfortunate sailor undoubtedly per-
ished. Hdlett was about forty.hve years old,
