2 ILL-FMED BEL IS GDHEAT LUST SCHOONER BERWIND, AFTER MANY HARDSHIPS, IS WRECK ED ON CUBAN COAST. What Is the last of a bad luck ship, the history of which is probabl. known to every English speaking sal' orinau in the world, lies on the beach of the Isle of Pines, near Havana, i total wreck, and her captain, Lout. 11. Davidson, of Birston. with eight men, arrived in Havana Thursday to tell Ihe story. The vessel is the Harry A. Berwlnd. of Philadelphia aboard which soon after she was launched three negroes murdered tli captain and the rest of the crew u ' cause their coffee had not been served hot. The Berwind never had a day’-; in: k from the hour that she slid dow 1 the ways at Mlllbridge, Me., in De i ember, 1805. She was a beautlfii boat in lines and finish. -With all sail set before a light breeze she was a 1 icture in the water. In pointing Int. t ie wind the Berwind was better tha any four master that Maine hail turn ed out in ten years. But there was a curse across her bow. in her first trip to Philadeiplm she ran Into a steamship and was badly damaged There was always something wrong with the crew. s than a year old, the Berwind had more trouble than any other vessel In th? way of collisions, and finally, two months after her christening, there occurred on board the tragedy for which one man was hanged. That was on October 12 of lasi year: On that date In the dark of night the schooner Blanche H. King, Captain j. W. Taylor, with lumb.e from Brunswick, sighted distress sig nals in board the Berwind, oft South port, ly, C. Captain Taylor sent ms mate and half a dozen men to the Berwind. They found three negroes, Robert Sawyer, Henry Scott, and John Adams. The three men declared that there had been a fight on board an i that Captain ltuniill, the engineer of the hoisting apparatus, the stewai i and the mate had been killed. The male of the King left the negroes un til morning. On the following morn ing the King's crew took charge of the Berwind and made prisoners of the three negroes. After landing the Berwind In South port It developed that there had been mutiny aboard the ship 'because col t coffee had been served to the three negroes. The rest of the crew pahi the penalty of death for the cook; mistake. For the crime Scott wm hanged and the other two sailors sent to prison for long terms. It was the sloop owned by S. II Hearty that picked up the Berwind ; crew The men were taken to Neuva Clerona and sent by rail to Havana. The Berwind’s gross tonnage was !'6. her length 1‘J1.7, her depth 38 & and her beam 17.4.
