" City of Dublin Steam-Packet Company,
" Office, 24, Water-street, Liverpool, April j'' 1841.
" GENTLEMEN,—In reply to your letter of this
morning,
I beg to state, as a proof of nzy opinion of the Wireip
for Standing Rigging, that I have recently put it on board
e
of this Companys new Steamer the Erin-go_Bragh
' and
which I would not have done if I had the slightest doubt of
its superiority over Hemp Cordage.
.TheStandingßigging
of the Prince, Princess, Queen Victoria, Oriental, and
Great Liverpool, is in the same good condition as when
first put on board those Steamers ; and, as regards the two
first-named Vessels, it has not been necessary to set the
Shroncis up since they were hauled taut two years since. I
find the Wire Rope answers admirably for Ridge Ropes for
awnings, as k becomes like a bar of iron when well set up,
and does not give to the lashings.
" I am, Gentlemen, your obedient servant,
" JAMES C. SHAW.

Agents for A. Smith's Patent Wire Ropes."

" Liverpool, 15th May, Mil.
GENTLEMEN,—At the request of the Patentee, Mr.
Smith, I beg to state for his information, that the Patent
Wire Rigging fitted to the iron shin John Garrote, of 711
tons, under my command, after being a voyage from England
to Bombay and back to this port, during which period it was
tried by the most severe weather, remains in a most excel-
lent condition ; so much so, that I do not consider it neces-
sary to have it taken down for refitting until the Ship has
performed another voyage, should it even then be requisite
to do so.
" I have much pleasure in adding my testimony to its
great utility, and decided superiority over Hempen Cordage,
being much lighter, smaller, stronger, and cheaper than the
latter, and, I have no hesitation in saying, from what I have
experienced, much more durable. The John Garraw's
Lower Rigging is only 34 inch Patent Wire Rope; whereas,
had it been Hemp, 8# inch would have been required.
" am, Gentlemen, yours truly,
" F. WILSON.
