fog when she grounded recently.
There was a persistent drizzle, but
the lights along the shore were
clearly visible.
The lookout discerned the first
shor© light at midnight. The great
Fire Island light, which throws its
beams 19 miles on a «lear night,
was seeu by the Northern Pacific.
In fact it was following this sig
nay that led to disaster, for some
body oa watch simply mistook this
for the Ambrose channel light, so
army officers said, and steering for
what was Delieved to be the entranc
to the channel the ship veered five
miles of* its course and- drove a"
