Somewhere out on the Atlantic,
breasting wintry seas and with some
Of her canvas set. is tho fOur-masted
sciiounc. Edward j. Brrwind, abau-
doned and beating up the tracks for
the Port OF Missing Ships.
She was sighted at sea on Febru-
airy 7, by Captain Scott, OF the steam
err Marayel, now in New York, from
Granada.
The s%chooner's decks were awash,
and there was evidence that the crew
had left in haste. 1t is possible that
they were picked up by passing craft.
When sighted the schooner vas
about 40 miles east Of Charleston,
S. c., and although water-logged, was
making about two knots and heading
away from the shore.
Her storm foresail was set and the
mizzcn under two reefs. Her head
sails had been carried away, and the
spanker was In ribbons. Towing
was not feasible on account Of the
rough weather.
The Borwind Is likely to provo an
ugly menace for navigation for she
is under fair Roadway and running
through the nights without a light
displayed.
