Now that the State of Maine is safely lowed
to Dipper Harbor, it may be interesting to
know how she is to be got to sea. She lies high
and dry on the sand. Capt. Merritt has pumps of
such power that they scoop up and throw away
the sand under the steamer, until an eXcava-
ton is made deep enough to permit men to go
underneath the plank over the breaks in the YES
sePs bottom. Then channel is scooped out, or
dredged out to deep water, through which the
steamer, sufficiently repaired to float, will move
TO the sea and be lowed to the place where per-
manent repairs will be made.
