Ship "Cadweens" crashes into the quay

From "The Irvine and Fullarton Times" dated 27th June 1902.

The S.S. "Cadweens" met with a slight accident in the Eglinton Dock on Monday evening.
Whilst changing her berth, the vessel, which was steaming at "Dead slow" crashed into the quay, and the noise soon collected a crowd of spectators.
Little damage beyond a twist in the blades of the anchor was sustained.
