: The wreck of the Wexford, a 250-foot steel hull, bulk freight that was lost in the "great Storm of 1913" has been found. The British cargo ship was found by divers resting in excellent condition, on the bottom of Lake Huron, sitting upright with only its stacks missing. The ship was discovered by a local salmon fisherman who noticed a bump on the bottom with his sonar. The wreck lies 11 kilometers offshore between Grand Bend and Bayfield.
: The vessel was overwhelmed and sunk on November 10, 1913 while carrying a cargo of steel rails. Her crew of 17 were lost in the sinking.
