Salvaging shipwrecks

Robert Carse, The Twilight of Sailing Ships Grosset and Dunlap 1965
The barque Alice run aground near Portland Or, a total wreck but still the locals can still find equipment worth salvaging.

Below a barque also named Alice at Mystic Seaport in 1905. The info on the website indicates this ship was abandoned off Cape Hatteras so probably not the same ship.
