The CorneIIa a.

The Cornelia II. collided with the Forest
City of the island line Saturday forenoon,
doing considerable damage to the latter. The
Island News says the accident was the result
of gross carelessness" on the part of the
ferry boat captain. The story of Capt. King
of the Cornelia which is corroberated by
many who saw the accident from the wharf
and from the Boston boat, is that previous to
starting the boat from the end of Custom
House wharf where she lay, he struck the
customary four bells and on starting blew
the whistle. Her course was not directly
across the entrance to the dock, butt in swing
inground to go across the harbor the boat came
into the course of the Forest City which was
backing out The captain of the latter who
saw danger struck two bells, which the spec
tators say they distinctly heard, and which,
If regarded by the engineer would have
stopped the Forest City, and started her
ahead and no collision would have happened
But instead the Forest City increased her
speed in backing and the result was crash
This is the only accident that has occurred
to the Cornelia since the one with the Cor

An Aged Veteran,

Saturday, Judge F. L. Nichols of Toledo
Ohio, probably the oldest veteran soldier OF
the Grand Army of the Republic, now within
few days of so years of age called at the
PRESS Office. He was born on the 18th day
of July, 1905 in the county of Herkimer,
New York, emigrated to the West in 1885,
settling in Toledo, Ohio, in January, 1886,
and has resided there ever since and saw the
place grow from a wilderness to busy and
fiourishing city of nearly or quite $4,000 in
habitants. On the breaking out of the war,
he enlisted in the 130th Regiment, O.V. l., as
volunteer to protect Ohio. In 1864 his regi-
ment was ordered to the front, but on ac-
count of his age he was not obliged to go, but
preferred to go with the boys and see the
thing through or die in the cause. The judge
is now hale and hearty and would not be TAX
en- for man over 80 years. He expressed
his delight with his trip here and the very
kind attentions he received from the citizens
of Portland and from all with whom he has
had the pleasure to meet in the State of
Maine and leaves them with many thanks
and regret. He expects to go with the com
rades at the next annual meeting on the Pa
cific coast.
