Transcribed by Barb Baker. Geo. THE WHITEHAVEN GAZETTE & CUMBERLAND ADVERTISER, Monday, December 2, 1822 / NEWS. _________________________________________________________ NEWS. Three of the crew of the brig "Jane", of Liverpool, which was wrecked in a gale of wind on the 10th of December last, in Fortune Bay, Newfoundland, were sent home in the "Clinker". These men (two of whom are not 25 years of age) present the most deplorable effects of being frost-bitten. PETER COOK has lost his feet to the ankle joints, and all his fingers and thumbs; PETER DOUGHTY, his toes and part of his fingers; JOHN GILL, all his toes except three. Though the amputations were made by a man in the situation of a clerk to a merchant, with a chisel, hammer, and a common knife, their wounds all speedily healed; and, what is more remarkable, they are by no means so helpless as they would have been, if the amputation had been professionally performed, as more of the roots of the fingers remain than would have been deemed proper. .........................Plymouth Telegraph.........................
