Picture of the American Ship shenan-
doah.
Sheriff Gould recently under the orders
OF Judge Wales gave several imprisoned
sailors their liberty. One of the men pre-
sented TO the sheriff quite pretty bit of
handlwork i'll the form of u carved paint
Ing of the American shlp Shenandoah of
the crew of which the marine artist was at
one time u member. The picture hangs in
the sheriiI's office in the county building
" shows Il tug approaching the vessel
and two men in n ships boat in front
From the peak halyards is flying a set OF
Hays. These flags as they appear IN their
regular order caused some discussion
among the frequeuters of the sheriff $
office as towhat their meaning is. As the
picture shows the United States ensign
lilies at the top. Then comes the signal M
tended for the international code and fol-
lowing it four other flags all ina line. This
sadly puzzles the marine l8wS ers Of the
county building, some said 1t was a salute
to the state ot Delaware. Others that it
meant that the ship was sinking AMI that
the tug was coming to her and 10 take the
crew off. Deputy Sheriff iiitfin sad it
was the signal of mutiny aboard. There
was such u vast divergence OF opinion that
the matter was at length left TO the deci
sion Of a mariner who knew something OF
what he talks about. This was Captain
| Ihllp RoybO.d, Who after critically eN'
amining the picture said that no doubt the
| painter intended to give the idea of 0
| signal stating that there was mutny ABOARD
and that assistance was needed This ac
| corded closely to Uncle Tommy'S guess
| which fact very much gratiiied that gen
| tleman who now is proved to know more
sea law than all the legal profession
punched together.
| 1t was learned from Captain ReybolC
that the artist sailor did not know very
| well what lie was doing or he would no
have put up his ensign and code signal OF
| the same mast from which he signaled hi
| message. lie has done this which is not a
all shipshape nor Bristol fashion,
| The rule, Captain Reybod says. woult
be in this case, to hoist the United State
ensign at the peak halyards with the pen
nant beneath it. Then To hoist the mesSag
ON the miZzen separate from the ensign
The rule is so IN order that the party tax
ing the message may thereby see the en
sign dipped without interfering with III
message bunting. We're ali the Hays ON I h
same mast the dipping which is the sigma
for II understand gwen from the ensigl
and pcnnant alone would with difficult
be discerngd. As soon Ms the person ashor
aud the skipper aboard see that they hay
one anothers attention then they turn /
the message flags on the other mast whicl
are then clearly read. The Shenandoah
artist had all the flags, ensign, pennar
and message OH the peak halyards. Thu
was where he made his mistake.
