Storm delays tantos ships at coastal ports and harbor flooding
A heavy north easterly gale disrupted shipping across several ports. A large fleet, including steamers, tugs, barges, schooners, and about thirty fishing boats, stalled at the local harbor while vessels bound for Boston and eastern ports activated diversions from Vineyard Haven. The Bay State arrived from Portland, battered but intact, and the Portland stayed docked awaiting calmer seas. The Pollock Rip lightship dragged from position, prompting caution for captains. No casualties reported despite the high tide flooding several waterfront cellars.
