Title

English: Four-masted bark COLUMBIA at anchor, Washington, ca. 1900

Description

English: Printed on mount: Schiff Columbia, Capt. H. Schutte, "Bremen" Handwritten on verso: COLUMBIA 4 m. bark A German irone four-masted bark, the COLUMBIA was built in Britain by Harland & Wolff in 1883 as LORD WOLSELEY and subsequently sold to the Germans and renamed. In 1904, COLUMBIA was dismasted in a violent storm, towed to Esquimault and sold to be renamed and employed as a ballast lighter in Vanouver (p. 85). Later she was re-rigged as a six-masted barkentine and sailed under the name EVERETT G. GRIGGS (p. 112). [Notes from Gordon Newell, ed., The H.W. McCurdy Marine History of the Pacific Northwest (Seattle: Superior Publishing Co., 1966)].
