We perceive it is reported in the Shipping Gazette, that on the 10th
instant a jibboom and a ship’s boat, painted black outside and white within,
has been washed on shore at a place called Tramore, situate between Waterford
and Cork. The report further states that the letters on the stern are nearly
obliterated, but as well as could be distinguished, they appear to be
‘Redbere,’ William Lumsen. We have no doubt, therefore, that she belonged to
the ill fate schooner ‘Red Deer,’ of this port, William Rumson, as she has been
overdue from the Mediterranean, with a cargo of corn, for several weeks. She
had spofen with both off Lisbon and Oporto. The Red Deer is nearly a new
vessel, having been very recently launched from the building yard of Mr. Mayn,
at the Bar.[1]
