AFTER 80 YEARS.
Somewhat Doubtful Clue to Fate o.
Steamer City Of Boston.

Halifax. y. s., Feb. 11.-After 80
years, the newspapers Of the province
are making public what is believed TO
be information concerning the lost In
man Line steamer City of Boston. The
steamship which sailed from Halifax
for Liverpool. Feb. 2 1870, with a large
number of passengers, never reached
Eort aai il was believed by many that
she stuck an iceberg and foundered
while others held the theory that she
encountered the fun force of storm
which sprang up the day she sailed and
foundered.
All these years it had been generally
supposed that the City of Boston had
never been sighted by any vessel after
leaving Halifax on that day. The
North sydney Herald now states that
there is reason TO believe that the
steamer was seen during the storm well
off the Cape Breton coast and was not
lost by striking an iceberg as many
thought.
The Herald says: The late Thomas
Hackett of this town, was on voyage
in a schooner from st. Johns, y. F., TO
this port and in the storm mentioned
passed steamer in distress. The
steamer was firing rockets. captain
Hackett could render no assistance, as
his vessel had all she could do TO live
in this fearful storm. The crew of the
schooner watched the distressed steam
er untn all the lights disappeared and
all on board concluded that the steamer
went down. Captain Hackett believed
that this steamer was the Inflated city
OF Boston.
Taking the date she steamed out of
Halifax, she should have been in the
vicinity of the distressed steamer at
the time the schooner passed. There
were no newspapers published in Cape
Breton at that time, which accounts
for the schooner's report not being
made public. The late Captain Hackett
was a reserved man and talked very
little about his experiences at sea
