In this condition she was found by the salvors, who, responding to signals of distress, took the crew off and landed them in Sydney, Cape Breton, then returned to the Regina, and, after considerable exertion, brought her into the same port. The net proceeds of ship, stores and cargo were $7,105. Held, that the salving schooner should receive $500, and the ten seamen on board her $200 each. Directions given as to proper method of executing appraisement of ship and cargo. The barque Regina, on a ...voyage from Quebec to South- ampton, laden with timber, struck on a reef while passing down the Gulf of St. Lawrence, and after beating against it for some time floated off again, but immediately became water-logged, and, through the loss of her rudder, utterly unmanageable. In this condition she was encountered by the schooner Ocean Belle. In response to signals of dis- tress the crew were taken off, and the vessel abandoned. The crew were brought into Sydney, Cape Breton, and the same day the salvors proceeded in boats on board the Regina, took possession of her, and, after some days' severe exertion, succeeded in bringing her safely into the harbour of Sydney.
