Launch Struck by Steamer on Tacoma Route
Dense Puget Sound fog led the steamer Tacoma bound for Seattle to strike the launch Fossberg off Brown's Point six miles from Tacoma. No passengers aboard the launch were hurt. Captain Berg, his son Clarence, and a deckhand were rescued by the Tacoma and brought to Seattle. The Fossberg, 65 feet long and able to carry 125, was beaching to avert sinking. Berg called it an unavoidable backing collision. The launch was uninsured.

Restoring it will require passing through or between several farm buildings, and the levy court will consider reestablishing the legal line at its next meeting.
