The horse power of a whale has
been made a subject of study by the
eminent anatomist, Sir William Tlr-
ner, of the University of Edinburgh,
Scotland, in conjunction with the
equally eminent Glasgow shipbuilder,
John Henderson. The size and di-
mensions of a great finner stranded
several years ago on the shore at
!.ongriddy furnished the necessary
data for a computation of the power
necessary to propel it at a speed of
twelve miles an hour This whale
measured eighty feet in length,
twenty feet across at the fianges of
the tail, and weighed seventy four
tons. To attain a speed of twelve
miles per hour 1t was calculated that
