Her owner, Mr. S. Penthany, of Santa Cruz, was in Bangor and displayed a picture of tho old craft which was taken as the vessel was rounding a coral reef undfir full sail. The picture is a good one and the lines of tho craft aro well brought out. “How much of the original craft is there now?” asked the reporter. “The keelson and main tributors of the hull which are laid in tho construe* tion of her aro still there,” said Mr. Pen thany, “and they nro good for many years to come.” What a story would tho history of this old craft make I—Bangor News.
