Waterfront Notes From The Harbor Scene

On the same day the Norwegian bark George le Doane, once owned at Yarmouth Nova Scotia, was abandoned at sea. Captain Nugent of tug Al. W. Cadester ton towed the three masted schooner Alice B. Phillips to a local shipyard for repairs. The schooner Newell B. Hawes was libelled and set for May 12 in U S District Court. The line steamer Halifax carried freight and 135 passengers from Nova Scotia, with a consul’s man Henry J. Ikennan among those onboard. A new Johnston service appointment in Montreal follows Captain A. Hawkett from the Queensmore. Multiple vessels including the Sylvania and the Navahoe move through Boston and Lewis wharf as ships of several nations converge at the port. A Dutch 1700 ton ship De Ruyter sails for this port with sugar cargo. Whaling and fruit schooners, liners and steamers continue a busy Atlantic rhythm with ships from the United States, England, Germany, Italy, and Holland bringing cargo and passengers alike.
