SAGADAHO(

Some weeks ago. wrecking party under
the command of Capt Lincoln Baker, was
sent by the Boston Tow Boat Co. to Bath, to
endeavor to raise the tug Mary Lee, sunk in
Is fathoms of water off Small Point. 1t was
thought extremely doubtful if the party
would be able to work the wreck on account
of the great depth of the water and its ex
posed position. Mr.. Duncan, the diver who
so successfully worked the wreck of the
steamer City of Columbus, after great exer-
tons managed to reach the tug and get the
hosting chains under her. Upon attempting
to lift the boat, the tackle slipped and another
week was used up IN rearranging the appar-
atus. The second attempt was not success
full, and the half dozen trials made since then
have proven fruitess. The work is being
prosecuted by the insurance companies. who
had very heavy risks on the tug, and it is ru-
mored that they claim if they can get the boat
aloat that they can show she was set on fire
to secure the insurance.
