G. F. Smith & Co. have received a
cable at San Francisco stating that the
old bark Sonoma was ashore on the
coast of Japan. The vessel is an old
timer and we'll known. Her owners
are not at all anxious over the matter,
however, and say that the Sonoma will
be got off and make quick run to that
port. She is one of the best-known
vessels in the coasting trade and is
a thoroughly sound boat, so that it
would take a great deal of battering
on any coast to make her unseaworthy.
