Sonoma Democrat, 12 November 1857
AFLOAT AND ASHORE. — It was feared
in San Francisco last week (in which fears
we truly shared) that Frank Sonle, Esp.,
had been lost in the brig J. B. Brown,
which was wrecked at the mouth of the
Albion river a short time ago.
Happily, however, he turned up on
Friday, safe and sound, having escaped
with all who were on board at the time.
He passed down through Bodega via Pet-
aluma, to San Francisco, on Thursday
last. We extend our sympathies to our
friend Soule, for this disastrous termina-
tion of his pleasure trip, yet rejoice, that
while he has been blown ashore, he is
still afloat.
