ago to engage In the whale trade off
the California coast, purchased by the
government two year later and pressed
Into service as a survey-boat, twice
wrecked and narrowly escaped from
being parmanenUy placed out of com
mission such. In brief, is the history of
tho United States craft Gen. H. O.
Wright, which will be sold here at pub
lic auction on June IS. She haa become
too old and decrepit for active govern
ment work, and the little abip is to be
disposed of to the highest bidder.
oooossor Already rianaed.
Already plana and specifications for
her successor have been prepared, and
on May 28 bids for the construction of
the new survey-boat will be opened In
the office Of MaJ. W. C Langfitt.
The new vessel will be 86 feet in
length, and will meaaure 18 feet across
the beam. In also ahe will be somewhat
larger than the MaJ. Ouy Howard, now
operated by the quartermaster's depart
ment
The Oen. H. O. Wright was built In
1871 by Captain Whltelaw, the San
Francisco rescuer of wrecks and sal-
vage mariner, who christened her the
Daisy Whltelaw in honor of hla only
daughter. Tho owner built her for
steam whaler, and for two years he op
erated the vessel In this trade, but with
Indifferent results. Finally Colonel
Gillespie of the corps of United States
engineers, then officer In charge of this
district, took a fancy to the queer-look
ing craft and bought har for a trifle less
tnan ner original cost or iiz.ooo.
Goes oa ratal Xtrpsdltloa.
A few daya later he .bad her fitted up
o go north on a surveying expedition.
At that time the government had very
little accurate knowledge of many of
tho harbors along the coast of the North
Pacific.
Arriving at Taquina bay, the Wright,
by which name she waa then known.
dropped anchor off the bar. The cap
tain and two of his sailors, whose names
cannot now be recalled, embarked In a
small boat to take a look about tbe bay.
Their boat capsized and all three men
were drowned. Later the bodies were
recovered and now occupy unmarked
and unknown graves somewhere on the
shore overlooking the accident
Wrecked at Oooa Bay.
In 1890, while proceeding over the bar
at Coos bay, the Wright was wrecked
and temporarily placed out of commis
sion. A terrific gale was raging, and
she was almost swamped by a heavy
sea. The engine-house was washed off.
the fires were put out and all the rail
ing on the port side carried away. For
time It looked as though the vesstl
was doomed to destruction,, but she
drifted Into a safe retreat on the In
side harbor. ;
The steamer has been used In mak
ing surveys of every harbor on the
coast between .California and Alaska,
and she has also done considerable row
ing. She Is 2 feet long, has a width
of IS. feet,, and draws m feet of water.
It is thought probable that some of
the local steamboatmen will endeavor to
purchase -her ao fit her up for a tow
boat, '-- ,
