Ellis & Co., have received a message advising them that a sailor named Dawe had beendrowned from the schooner "Inspiration" whilst on the passage from this port [St. John's] to Lisbon. Joseph belonged to St. John's and was married to May Noel. Survived by wife and six children; the oldest Wm. aged 17 and the youngest is a girl aged 4. The Inspiration left here on January 14th and arrived at her destination on the 28th making a splendid run across. The sad duty of informing the widow devolved upon Rev. Mr. Nichols of St. Michaels Church.	1
