Syllabus

<p>1. Collision—Vessels Meeting—Steamer and Schooner in Tow.</p> <p>Evidence considered, and heló, to show that a steamer passing up the St. Clair river and a schooner coming down in tow were both in fault for a collision in which the schooner was sunk,—the steamer for sheering to starboard, toward the course of the schooner, after passing the ship having the latter in tow, and in failing to take timely action to keep at a greater distance after the exchange of passing signals, which she might safely have done; and the schooner for the same reason, it appearing that she did not promptly change her course, as did the steamer having her in tow, which was exonerated from fault.</p>
