Tempestuous Voyage of the German Ship Nisata
The German ship Nisata under Captain Adolph Kyrie arrived from Antwerp after a perilous voyage. Four ferocious storms battered the vessel off the River Plate and Cape Horn, leaving six sails lost and Ernest Brunner dead, yet the ship completed the 140 day passage. On the Pacific leg a massive five day hurricane drove the ship off course, with miles of heaving seas and near-matches to disaster before a rapid return toward Cape Horn. The Nisata then rode out further gales with heavy damage before finishing the trip up the Pacific coast to Cape Flattery, carrying 2,800 tons of cement and iron ore to KR Grace & Co.
