District Court, D. Maine April 29, 1948, No. 28 (Casco Bay Lines v. The Laura)

CLIFFORD, District Judge.

This is a suit in Admiralty brought by the owners of the passenger steamship Maquoit to recover damages sustained by The Maquoit on the morning of August 11, 1945, as a result of a collision claimed to have been caused by the negligence of the scow Laura in Portland Harbor, Maine. The sole issues to be determined are whether both vessels were at fault or only one.
