remember several years ago when the
steamer Dubuque of the Diamond JIG
line was thrown out into the middle
of the river at this place during the
night of heavy wind and rain storm
The line and anchor which held the
boat TO the shore were lost and never
were found. Yesterday several fisher
men and men of the ". C. G. L CON
pany ON the levee were walking alone
the shore and discovered the old line
sticking up out of the sand. Follow
ing 1t out into the river in skift. the
heavy anchor which was thrown over
board at the time OF the boats break
ing away from her moorings, was alsc
found and brought to shore by tbs
men. The line had been buried for al
most five years and would probabI,
never have been found had It not beer
for the wind and waters washing ava.
the sand and dirt that was on top O
It.
