Kingston Chronicle, Oct. 20, 1820

p.3 We learn that during the dreadful gale of the 11th inst., the schooner Asp, from Niagara, laden with staves, was driven ashore and wrecked in Mexico Bay, near Oswego, and that of eleven persons on board, two only succeeded in reaching the shore. Two or three American vessels were also stranded at the same time, but without the loss of any lives.
