USLHT Warrington
The United States Lighthouse Tender Warrington was a lighthouse tender which served on the Great Lakes. She was built as a steam barge in 1868, and began life under the name Henry Warrington. Rechristened simply Warrington, she began government service late in 1870, and was soon pressed into service supporting the construction of the Spectacle Reef Light on Lake Huron. On one of her trips across the lake, during a late-fall storm, she encountered the schooner Darien, which was breaking up on the shore; the Warrington's crew managed to turn towards the wounded vessel and rescued her entire crew.
