This schooner, shortly before 9 o'clock of April 1, 1900, sank from coming into collision with a barge. After sinking to a depth of about fifty-four feet at low water, the masts of the schooner projected some fifteen feet above the water, but none of her sails remained visible. About twelve hours after such sinking, the plaintiff's vessel, striking some part of the masts, spars, sails, or rigging of the submerged schooner, sustained damage thereby, to recover for which the actions were commenced. No attempt was ever made to raise the sunken schooner. She could have been raised and repaired, but the cost would have exceeded her value.
