XXXVI. ] VOLUNTARY STRANDING. 153 formally reversed the conclusion come to in BradJmrst V. Columbian Ins. Co. , and established the rule, now universally acted on throughout the United States, that a voluntary stranding is equally the subject of general average, whether the stranded ship is afterwards saved and repaired, or is totally lost by the stranding [a). T...he case was this : The brig Hope, going down Columbian Chesapeake Bay, found the weather too bad to proceed Ashby. ' to sea, and bore away for a projecting headland in the Bay, called Sewell's Point, where she anchored. On the second and following day the gale increased in violence ; the brig dragged her anchors from time to time, till finally she struck on the shoals, and her head swinging round brought her broadside to the wind and a heavy sea. In this situation the captain, finding no other possible chance of saving the ship and cargo, and pre- serving the lives of the crew, slipped his cables and ran the brig ashore as high up the beach as possible, where, after the storm, she was left high and dry, and there was no possibility of getting her off.
