Mussels of Granville, NS., on 7th inst. who recognized the main mast as that of the schr. "Pearl" which left Boston December 7 and has not since been heard of . The persons who sailed in her from Boston were James Sederquist, of Digby, Capt. William Sederquist (Capt.'s brother) and John Papoon, French. James and William Sederquist drowned December 23, 1845 when their schooner was lost on the return trip from Boston to Granville where they had taken a cargo of pulpwood .
