Castle, famous clipper ship of the copra trade since the '80's, was destroyed at the order of James Cruze, director, in the climax of the battle sequence of 'Old Ironsides', which he is directing for Paramount. Cannon shot from 'Old Ironsides' first sheared away the masts of the 'Castle', used as a Tripolitan pirate craft, and then exploded a powder magazine in the hull. Dense smoke overhung the Catalina Isthmus Bay as the boat burned. The main mast was the last to sink, flaming like a mammoth torch. It will be necessary to send divers down to dynamite the hull to prevent any menace to navigation."
