Drifter Sunk in Collision
Members of Crew Rescued from Water
The herring drifter Mary Adeline was sunk yesterday near Tynemouth Pier in a collision with the steamer Grangewood.
Four of the Mary Adeline's crew jumped overboard when the collision occurred, and kept themselves afloat until picked up by a boat from the drifter Nulli Secundus, which shortly afterwards took the six remaining men off the sinking drifter.
The Grangewood was apparently undamaged, and proceeded on her voyage.
