An 'aftfcTe. updji tho eailyhistoiy of navi¬ gation in Lake Superior, taken froip the Ma¬ im*}: Rkcoku, of Clovo'and, and copied by the News of Juno 21st, gave lise to a ralhei odd incident. Among tho list of disasters there recorded was the loss of the si hooner Merchant In 1847, ulth seveial passengers and a large crew. Mr. William Galloway, of this placo, In reading over the names of tho latter, camo across two, James Ci timer and James Clafk, of Port Saruin, Out. The names i eemed quite familiar and he recol¬ lected that In his early .boyhood In one of tho country villages of Canada two men of tlioso names had very uijsterloiifh disappeared.
