The Old Maytiower.

ghe old Maytlower that brought the
Rilgrims to Plymouth Rock $50 years
ago:
History touches> the famous craft

London boat, >" "o'ship oflSO TONS"
with Captain Joneseas master and Mr..
Clark as first mates We do not know
what her dimensions were, for the
measurements fdrr tonnage in those
days were not taken as they are now.
Bat a vessel OF ls9,totrs in these days
is larger one than ttae old Mayfow-
at was. A good s,1ed brick schooner
IT built three or three and one
half times us lpng as she is
broad, and twoottiir,ls rs deep as she
is broad, would be about the size
OF the old Mayflomer. Shecould make
four or five kpats in fair, driving
gale. Food fopr arew and passengers
was cooked at d brick fireplace A
square sail. ceiled a spirit sail, was
suspended from,the yard at the end oi,
the bowsprit. She carried five other
square sails irom her five yards, and
perhaps four1ib apd staysails. Her
crew numbered probably thirty Or.
forty men. Three could handle a
schooner OF Ike size nowadays. But
the little ships of 1920 were stanch.
and, mannedtby the sturdy seamen of
Great Britain, successfully braved the
storms OF tho. most dangerous part Of
the ocean world. The Mayflower took
