NAII. March On Wednesday
evening, February 9th, G. A. Nor
berg. master of the schooner Anna,
was probably drowned, and up to the
nresent moment the waters Of hahu-
Iui bay have not revealed their secret.
At o'clock Thursday morning, as
Police Captain Lindsay, with two
men, were returning from Camp .,
Spreckelsville, where they bad made
q clever arrest, they noticed a boat
stranded at high water mark on IA
huIui beach. Upon official inYestiga-
tion il was found that Captain Nor
berg, during the previous night, had
maid q shore visit in the boat that at
10 o'clock OF the same evening Gardi-
ner. of the Kahului saloon, saw Nor
berg pull OFF toward the schooner;
and that Mcdonald, first mate, while
DOING in his bunk aboard the Anna,
heard a noise resembling the whip
ping Of oars, and supposed that the
captain had returned. From the
above mentioned facts it is probable
that Norberg, while stepping from the
boat to the schooner's ladder, with the
tenders p Inter in hand, missed his
footing, and striking the boat with his
head was knocked insensible, and
while unconscious met his death by
drowning. Linai, the Sam Oan diver,
has been making unsuccessful at
tempts to recover the bOdy.
No suspicious of foul play or of sui
eide are entertained, as the crew Of
the Anna are q respectable body of
men, consisting of G.. G. Mcdonald
and George Murk, first aud second
mates, Albert OChri-field, steward,
and o. Nelson. II. Verbeck, T. BO-
bauer and w. Sheele, seamen. Cap
