and was promptly executed by Wil
liam Loeb, collector of the port of

ment that the British steamship
Ethelwold was believed to have been

Domingans, to aid in a filibustering
expedition.
The engineer and two members of
the crew declared that Captain
Brown and all others in authority
were ashore. They said their desti
nation was Sydney, Australia, and
that their cargo was composed of oil.
The vessel was not allowed to sail.
