This historic book may have numerous typos and missing text. Purchasers can download a free scanned copy of the original book (without typos) from the publisher. Not indexed. Not illustrated. 1884 Excerpt: ...claim, and they say that an agreement (10) was made with the plaintiff Captain Eobert Mounsey on behalf of himself and the other plaintiffs, except the master and crew of the ' Senhouse, ' on the said day that the 'Florence' should bring the ' Lorenzo' in, and that she should be docked on the next evening. The 'Lorenzo' was ready, and could have been towed in on the next evening, the 16th, as arranged, or on the 17th, but the ' Florence, ' in breach of the agreement, never came to tow her. 4. As to the residue of paragraph 4 the defendants say that the 'Lorenzo' was riding in safety with her two anchors. 5. As to paragraph 5, the defendants admit that the 'Lorenzo, ' being still at anchor in the same place, and the tide at low water being extraordinarily low, struck the ground several times on the morning of October 18th at low water. Her master thereupon determined to leave his anchorage before the next low water, and finding that no tug came signalled for directions how to steer by the letters N.H. Save as aforesaid they deny all the allegations in paragraph 5. 6. As to paragraph 6 of the statement of claim, the defendants say that the state of the weather and sea, and the difficulty and danger of the 'Florence' going out to the 'Lorenzo' are all greatly exaggerated therein. The 'Florence' was coming out in order to tow the ' Lorenzo' in under the original contract. Antonio Treche mentioned in the paragraph was the agent who made the contract, and it was upon his insisting that the 'Florence' ultimately came out. The defendants deny all the other allegations in paragraph 6 of the statement of claim, and those in paragraphs 7 and 8 of the statement of claim. 7. The sea was not sweeping over the ' Lorenzo, ' as stated in paragraph 8 of the statement of claim.
