Father Winter
The schooner sailed with Mr. Winter a day or two after Mrs. Winter left Buffalo. They soon encountered a storm, and for three days were tossed on the waves, expecting that any moment they might go to the bottom. The diary says they drifted three hundred miles and were at length driven on to a sandy beach on the Ohio shore. I do not remember whether she told me the place, and the nearest she comes to locating it in her diary, is by the remark that it was New Connecticut, But it was so far up the lake that it was three weeks before he met his wife.
