Sm,—Many years ago, the steamer Ajuce sank in this river. May'I presume on your courtesy and ask you to refer to your files and state the cause of the disaster.
Tam, ete., 19th July.
[The blue-funnel steamer Ajas: sank at her anchors in the river here on the night of the 17th of September, 1868. Her shaft had been disconnected for repairs, and the screw-propeller, which was outside the rudder in the three first blue-funnel boats, the Agamemnon, Achilles, and Ajax, hud been secured with' temporary lashings only. The strength of the tide moved the screw, which eventually worked out with 18 feet of shaft attached, leaving open the hole in the stern, through which the steamer gradually filled, and at high tide on 7 18th she was completely covered.-
