| st. Augustine, Florida, Of which there are
five, who were the first to discover that a
wreck had occurred, and what was Of more
consequence to them, the vast amount Of
freight already beached and coming, they
at once formed themselves into a joint
stock company for the time, and went for
that freight with a vim. Several trunks
belonging to the Inflated passengers came
ashore in good order, only to be broken
open and rifed. One evidently belonged
to q lady of wealth, for it was filled with
costly silk dresses and clothing Of the
finest order, and laces worth many dollars.
A gold watch and chain, and two valuable
bracelets, were also found in this runk.
In another trunk a large pocket-book,
well filled with bills, was found by the
pilots. They nave gold watches, diamonds,
well-flled wallets, elegant clothing and
many tons of valuable freight as their
reward. Indeed, the latter was in such
vast proportions that teams were en-
ployed for several days in hauling their
find. The large lighters were loaded with
produce. A bag of mail matter was
found September LIST. Being duly cut open
and examined, and nothing found in it
worth keeping, it was handed over to the
postmaster. Several bodies were washed
ashore, and being inspected and ~plundered,
they were buried in the sane on the beach.
The corpse Of a young lady came ashore,
on whose person was a dress Of rich silk,
and on a finger q valuable solitaire dia-
mond ring, She was also buried on the
beach, after having been rified of her
valuables.
