She is to be rigged as a fore and aft schooner, and will be ready to go into the grain or lumber trade in May. We wish the vessel and its worthy builder every success in so commend- able an enterprise, and as there is an abundance of all kinds of valuable ship timber in Door county, we hope to see this branch of industry increase and flourish. --------------------------------------------------------------------------- Door County Advocate Saturday, March 29, 1862 [extracts of marine news] - No marine news in this issue - ==========================================================================
