tized him and his wife seven years ago.
Fifteen years ago Capt. Stanley had a
vessel built on Sutton's island named
Fannie Earle which was lost four years
ago. He was rescued from his linking
vessel and carried TO England, and
doubtless the Irivations and hardships
and strain of mind of that shipwreck
we're really the prime causes of the illness
that has eliminated in his death.
For several years he sailed A. c. Wheel.

After the loss of the Fanny Earle, b,
