Jamestown Regiment

THE JAMESTOWN REGIMENT-On Thursday night about eight o'clock,
during a heavy fog, the steamer Dr. Kane, having on board the
skeleton of the Webster regiment, collided with the Telegraph No 3,
on her way up from Louisville, a short distance above Warsaw.
The latter steamer sustained no serious damage, and the officers called out to the Dr. Kane, asking if they wanted assistance. The answer was "Yes" but before the telegraph reached her, the Kane had drifted out of sight. The fog was very heavy and it was impossible to follow her. The extent of the damage to the Kane is not known, as nothing more was seen or heard of her.
