Irish fishermen rescue fifteen survivors from wrecked American sailing ship

The 2500-ton New York sailing ship Middlesex left Liverpool for her home port on February 18, 1861 with 33 crew and 35 passengers.  In a gale on March 12, her cargo shifted and the ship sank.  The captain and fourteen men among the crew and passengers escaped aboard the one surviving boat.  After four days drifting in heavy seas, the survivors reached inhabited islands off south-west Ireland and were rescued.  (By John Osborne)
