ARDROSSAN SHIP "HARVEST HOME" WRECKED IN CANADA

New York 2nd.
Advices from the Magdalen Islands, received at Halifax on 26th June, state that during a severe storm there on the 19th and 20th June, the barque "Harvest Home," of Ardrossan, from Malaga, Spain, to Saguenay, Canada, in ballast, went ashore on the east end of the islands, and would probably have become a total loss ; crew and materials saved.

Webmaster Note : Magdalen Islands are in Quebec province, in the Gulf of Saint Lawrence, Canada.
