" A CARD

" The undersigned passengers in the steam-ship Acadia.
from Boston to Liverpool, have much pleasure in expressing
their high esteem for Captain Edward G. Lott. From the
well-known reputation of Captain Miller, the intelligence of
his illness, depriving us of his agreeable company and valua-
ble services, was attended with sincere regret, not only on
his own account, but also that of those who expected to take
passage with him, especially as the command was to devolve
on a junior officer less experienced than himself. But jus-
tice to our own feelings, as well as the merits of Captain
Lott, prompt from us this public testimonial to the gentle-
manly deportment, the careful attention to every person's
comfort, and nautical skill exhibited by Captain Lott during
the passage. The good order on board the ship, the excel-
lence and profusion of the provisions, the vigilant and polite
attentions of the stewards and stewardesses, have been topics
of spontaneous and frequent remark.
" To the expression of the sentiments we entertain for
Captain Lott we add our most cordial wishes for the conti-
nuance of the flattering prospects that open before him, and
that he may conduce as much to the comfort and happiness
of all who may hereafter sail with him, as he has to the pas-
sengers of the Acadia in her present voyage.
(Signed) " EDWARD TUCKERMAN, Chairman.
" JAMES M. WHITON, Secretary."

" Gentlemen,—l must be insensible indeed, did I not fully
feel and appreciate the many flattering compliments you have
unanimously paid me, for which you must accept my most
sincere thanks.

" I must consider myself fortunate in having conducted
myself in such a manner as to call forth such flattering testi-
monials from gentlemen who have sailed with Captain Miller,
and those who, in anticipation of such pleasure, would, per-
haps, expect more than in the power of any but himself to
afford.

" I shall conclude with wishing you each and all happi-
ness.—l am, gentlemen, most respectfully yours,
(Signed) " E. G. LOTT.
