fog of Fort Gorges Monday afternoon
at about LIS o'clock Capt. Morrill,
OF the Sebascodegan says he was
making the regular course for the
channel mark on his way up the har-
Dor while Capt. Wiley of the u. 8.
Revenue cutter Woodbury. was also
steering for the same point in an op-
posite direction. The fog signals OF
the Sebascodegan were heard on
board the Woodbury. as were also oc-
casionally the Woodbury's signals.
though none of the passengers on the
former boat say they could hear the
Woodbury's whistle.
The collision came without more
than sufficient warning for the forty
passengers on the Sebascodegan to
get out of the way when the cutter
crashed in the starboard side of the
passenger boat demolishing the upper
works including the pilot house In
