Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from American and British Claims Arbitration: The Frederick Gerring, Jr. Memorial of the United States in Support of the Claim Memorial of the United States in Support of the Claim. The Frederick Gerring, Jr., was an American fishing vessel duly registered in accordance with the laws of the United States at the port of Gloucester, in the State of Massachusetts, and owned and officered by American citizens. Being licensed and equipped for a fishing voyage in the North Atlantic Ocean, she set sail from Gloucester on May 13, 1896. At about three o´clock in the afternoon of the 25th of May, 1896, the Gerring arrived in the neighborhood of White Island, off the coast of Nova Scotia, where Daniel Doren, her master, observed a number of other American fishing vessels fishing for mackerel at a distance of more than three marine miles from the coast of Nova Scotia, and also a sailing cruiser of the Dominion of Canada, the Vigilant, commanded by Captain Hector MacKenzie, patrolling those waters. While upon the high seas and near the Vigilant the master of the Frederick Gerring, Jr., saw a school of mackerel about one hundred and fifty yards to the southward of the cruiser, and heard the commander of the Vigilant assure the master of one of the other American fishing vessels, the Margaret Haskins, that the Vigilant was jogging on the line, that the school of mackerel was "all right," and "to go ahead," meaning that the fish were beyond Canadian jurisdictional waters. To satisfy himself further upon this point Captain Doren hailed the boat of the Haskins, which already had its seine out, and inquired of the master how far outside of the three-mile limit of Canadian territorial waters he then was.
