This will take all day Thursday. and the boat
would probably be ready to sail on Friday but, on
account OF the prejudice OF seafarng men against
beginning a voyage on that day. II may be that
the sailing Will be delayed.
The Army officers do not want even the shadow
OF "hoodoo" the trip So Il Is probable that
the Sherman will not start until Saturday on her
long voyage.
First Lieutenant J. W. McAndrew the regtmental
quartermaster of the Sd Infantry, came on ahead
OF his regiment. and has been the Sherman
since saturday assigning the quarters and gettihg
everything ready for the comfort Of the regiment.
Captain James G. Read. L. 5. V. Is the quarter
master In charge OF the boat. He is doing every
thing IN his power to get the boat ready on time
Gangs OF men have been working on her night ana
day. and when the vessel is cleaned up little she
will be in trim shape. In essential detail does
she differ from the Grant. which sailed for Mania
with the 4th Infantry and the lat Battalion or the
nth Infantry about two weeks ago.
