the small Maine boats have. and IL
contained no ballast as the party c.
ten weighted the boat down quite
heavily and Captain Haskell, an ex.

thought that the craft would be well
balanced.
The party had scarcely been gone
an hour before the wind treshened up,
heeling the sloop well over and dash
Ing the spray upon the occupants. Cap
tain Haskell decided that the wind
was too heavy for his boat and the
sea too choppy. so he brought the
sloop around and started on q tack

All the party were perched high up
on the weather side. as the sloop cut
through he waves with the water al
most coming over the gunwales on
the lee side, when Captain Haskell
gave q shout Of warning that he was
going to tack and then threw over the
tiller. Just at this moment the boat
rose high up on q wave, exposing her
TO the full brunt OF the wind. An I'M
usually heavy gust struck her and in
a twinkling the sloop went over on her
beam ends aud the party of ten were
thrown into the water.
The accident had been seen from
Eagle island and as soon as possible
a sloop was sent out to pick up the
survivors.
