they would have to give up the opportu-
nifty of seeing the English boat. More
over, there were several tugs sent out by
the newspapers, and most of these got
close enough to the visitor to give her
becoming welcome. The feet of vessels
was the largest that ever sailed to meet
an incoming yacht.
Vigilant was towed down through the
Narrows to Sandy Hook and dropped an
ehor in the Horseshoe. Defender turned
Yves tward on leaving the dock and went
up East river and thence to New Ro-
ohelle. 1t was long waiting for the boats
that went to meet Valkyrie, and for the
crowds on shore, for the whole afternoon
wore away without q sign of her. The
dock at Quarantine was crowded with
people when, at $3.50, the word was given
that the English craft was heading toward
the upper bay.
At 9:45 Valkyrie, in tow, slowly passed
Quarantine and was boarded by the health
officer. The cup challenger looked trim
and neat Her sails were snugly slowed
and on her decks were apparently all the
members of her crew. Hearty cheers of
welcome were exchanged with the Eng
lish sailors, and then, the usual formali-
ties having been complied with, Valkyrie
continued her journey up the bay.
Off Quarantine Valkyrie was boarded
by IA representative of the Associated
Press, who obtained the following story
of the voyage from Captain w w Gran
field: 1--WE left Gourock on July 27 with
full crew of forty two men. After leaving
Tory Island on the 2Sth, Sunday, we ran
into a fresh north-northwest gale, accom-
panied by high seas, which blew hard for
twenty-four hours, and then moderated
ION Wednesday morning, July 81, it
commenced to blow again from north
west to southwest, and it blew hard for
five days, when the weather moderated to
light southwest wind, which lasted up
to Cape Race There we caught a north
east wind, which carried us to Sable Isl
and, when the wind became light and left
US becalmed at times and lasting up to
our arrival here. -.-.
1--WE sighted Sninnecook light at noon
today, and at $3.50 this evening, when
twenty miles west Of Fire Island, we were
taken in tow by The. World tug c. P.
Raymond. We made 3,0l6 miles in all,
and one day only made about seventy
miles. We never carried away q rope or
yarn through the voyage"
Valkyrie looks a monster. When you
step on board Of her you can almost fancy
yourself on an ocean steamer. Her beam
is simply immense and she shows ire
mendous length. Her bowsprit for her
ketoh rig is very short, quite a little spar,
and her masts are splendid sticks. In a
word she may be labelled dangerous"
Yalkyrie anchored off Liberty Island
for the night and was taken to the Erie
basin this morning.
Valkyries time of passage was twenty.
