Ogle, of Waitara, in approaching Waitara between 5 p.m. and 6 p.m., struck the bar, turned turtle, and drifted on to the reef. Captain Robertas missing, and the enginear (.Jamieson) is believed to be entombed in the hull. The two passengers—one a son of the owner and the other a yoath named Jury—got ashore in the boat with George Millar, the third member of the crew. An attempt was made at low tide to release the engineer, but fumes prevented operations. There was a fairly heavy sea running at the time of the disaster. The Mahoe is a vessel of about 20 tons. She was on her way back from Marokopa, and was carrying a load of wool and a heavy deck cargo.
