I think that from Websters letter and what I recollect of the circumstances of the case that much of the timber (which came down on the 29 of April and which was passed through the boom between that time and the 25 of May) would have been lost to the owners had it gone loose into the St Johns as the boom at the mouth of the Aroostook even after it was repaired could not sustain a heavy load of timber. So that had the boom not been on the Aroostook it appears to me beyond question that their timber must have run out into the St Johns loose
