MESSAGE IN A BOTTLE.
From tho Captain OF u steamer Lost
Years Ago.

BAYFIELD,, Wis, May l9-Five
miles south VI this barber half imbed-
ded Ia the sand on the beach, James
Teggart, a iumberman, disco vered the
first message from the forty persons
who perisned In the wreck OF the
Manistrse, nearly fourteen years ago.
1t was u note CAREFULLY enclosed In a
heavy glass bottle. Tue writing had
faded with the lapse OF yeara, and tue
glass OF the bottle was worn thin with
It's constant beating against the sandy
shores OF Chtquamagon. The meg
tage on the note WAS as followt:
"November, 1888. Lett bayfield, at
l;lO pm. Just Ia sight OF Michigan
light house, We may not survive the
storm. Heavily laden and hard 10
turn In the storm. Captain Mckay,
steamer Manistrse."
The writing had faded 80 as to be-
almost tllegible. There Is n general
impression here that the message lie
genuine. The action OF the sanu and
waves on the bottle shows that 1t has
been t.ssed around the beach for q
long time. The faded writing also
proves conolueively that the note was
not written q few weeks or months
ago, Tor the purpose OF u hoax.
